Part true, lol... I actually said 19's look perfect without a kit, or a GFX kit... and 20's don't look right unless you have a kit like Vertex/Ings

yeah but now I figured out exactly what tire size I want, the other was too broad and kinda went off topic.

I started this to discuss offsets in specific

Why are you stretching a 255 on a 10" wheel?

WOW, I keep saying that to everyone and they look at me like I'm the weird one. I find it odd when I'm on stocks and I don't hear anything.

that was my exact thought. he told me stretching wasnt safe and i wasnt being a good parent driving my daughter in my lexus with stretched tires.

anyways, with those rims specs and you want to flush, your gonna have to run something in the high 20's.

20x9 +28
20x10 + 28ish

i agree with dj, if you stretch, run a higher profile, 255/35 rear is better than 255/30 because of the stretch

I thought the moderators stepped in and ended that conversation for us, so why bring it back up again??

As I stated before, I'm stretching my tires but WITHIN the tire companys specs... what they approve and deem 'safe'
