Ok i've got some falkens that are 195 50 15 and I currently have fat fives on them. What Im wondering is if 15x7 xxr 522s will fit on the tire. Im confused with how the first number of tires works and also will 15x8 even fit?
Well i mean I know those are reccomended but Im broke and don't have enough money for new tires again. I'll definitely stay with 15x7 but when you say they may need stretching, how does that work. I was planning on having some shop putting the tires on and balancing them...
Is stretching a 195 50 15 on a 15x8 dangerous or unsafe? Will the ride be more harsh? Anyone care to explain? I am broke just like the op lol so I don't want to buy new tires if u get a 15x8
Okay sound good coy, because I do a lot of daily driving, 60 miles each day so I want to make sure stretching tires is safe..I've done research and some people say no because it makes the sidewall thin it smaller and some people say its fine.
yes. it'll make the sidewalls 'thinner' and yes, youll still have camber wear even though youve zero'd out the toe. but it wont be as bad if you didnt get an alignment.
theres a safe stretch and then theres stupid-retard stretch. the numbers ive posted is fine for a daily driver.
