**Boring lame disclaimer we are obligated to tell you - most stretched applications are outside of the manufacturers recommended fitment range and may increase the chance of bead breakage. Stretch that perfect fitment with caution.**

  • @DenverDevilBoi
    Stretched tires and slanty boy wheels you say? Love these guys more and more with every video. Man I miss the 512's, those tires stretched so wonderfully.
  • This is actually pretty interesting . Can't wait for the next ep
  • @castin5244
    I've owned 3 of the tires on this list without having any idea they were good for stretching. They were just on sale xD (595, ZE912, Ecsta 4XII)
  • @OhThatGuy12
    These videos are so freaking helpful. Thank you Fitment Industries!
  • Planning on running a set of 595s in 195 50 15 on a set of 15 x 7s. I Know it's not much of a stretch but the video helped me out on making my decision on what to get.
  • @DROIDRAZR16
    This video was very informative. Best tire for stretching is Ironman gen 2
  • @operamatthew
    always had good experience stretching Hankook V12’s for very wide large diameter wheel setups. was running a 255/30 on an 11
  • @fvckinweenie679
    Finnaly i get to learn more about stretch tires thanks to this video
  • @garetht1236
    More fitment combo videos maybe? But really what about the opposite of stretching, going over the recommended size or getting beefier tires?
  • I've seen the Bosozoku guys fit a 195 on a 13x10... that was one crazy setup lol.
  • @iTzLiT211
    I respect the advice u giving and knowledge as well
  • @BoredGeese
    I have a stretched down a size (225 to 215) and the rims' offset makes it look like a poke fitment but my rims is just about the fender, so it's kinda not? Stock suspension so I had to do the math. Looks good and classy IMO.
  • Does it matter if the tire is xl? Extra load? Cuz this means a stiffer or stronger side wall...idk if that's good or bad for stretching
  • @PJWALL89
    Hi, need some advice here. I'm on 15x7 +35. If I want to go for 185/50 or 185/55 which is the best?
