I drift my SC also, but I get tires really cheap too
I think the stretch looked is the way to fit wider wheels into the wheel arches without scraping the crap out of your fenders.
You don't have to drift to have stretch tires, it is a way to tuck a wheel under your fenders for that credit card Flushness.
A lot of people on here don't like wheels being 'flush' because it looks too Cholo. oh well. If you want to run 19x8.5 wheels with a +55 offset wheels. It's your waste of money.
don't mean to sound hostile. I'm just tired from work and school.

Im running Dronells 3 peice 19x10 in the rear with a 35 offset. With 285 i had to hammer in the fender a little . A 35 offset is is agressive enough for me.

Actually I think its done to acheive a really agressive offset. Streching the tire allows the wheels to stick out and tires still fit the wheelwell. Personally, I dont care for it much. I like a aggressive wheel but the tire needs to match. Gansta or not I come from the old school where tire fitment is just as important as the rim. Nice and flush but just inside the fenders. I am preparing to put wider tires on the rims I have.
