0:10 the face you make when your so tired that you dont even care about how bad your joke was 😂😂😂
Can you do a video on big break kits vs weight . I think it would be something new like wilwood, brembo stuff like that 🤙🤙🤙
Can you stretch 15x7 ?
Stretching my tires, the road now feels like the opening scene of saving private Ryan.
That bad? I've never stretched and am considering a mild stretch for my project.
Jacob Wheeler you just feel every nook and cranny compared to a oem set and it hurts your soul :(
@@jacobwheeler6136 What wheel size/tire size did you stretch man?? i am still deciding whether i should do that or not
Try running no spring, only strut.
Then you got the Titanic hitting the Iceburg. 🤷🏼
Do a "so you want a mini truck"
They sell those to white people?
The Vibe what? 😂😂🤔
YES
YESSS PLZZ
Porsche-man... now I have you attention, can you do a "so you want a mini truck"... #sorryicalledyouaricer
That S2000, the rims poking out the side with so much chamber... Ive never understood how that look is appealing
“So you want a fox body.” Please!
Great informative post learned a lot thanks
My mistake was not thinking about tire tread wear. Within eight months of a brand new set of wheels and tires I went from 100% tire tread to about half its life.
Thank you fitment industries, For teaching me about wheels, tires and suspension! Special thanks to Nick for helping me with my coil overs!’ Biggest rookie mistake.. not measuring twice before cutting on occasion
Glad we could be here to help! 🙏🏼😂
Ohhhh man ok time for school🤓...😂 i finished school but this is a better school and teacher to learn from btw will you guys ever do something on brakes like cheap good brakes or a break down on the companies also did you guys also did a video on whats the best tires to stretch that has a strong sidewall? ......hope y'all had a good ass day and stay safe
This is a great company with a superb website, went on a limb and checked to see if they have wheels for my 2011 Taurus Limited... A shitload of options, considering a future purchase. Liked and subscribed.
Aye!! Thank you for the support! Welcome to the fam!!! 🙏🏼
I let you do the math, it seems legit. I honestly had my doubts but it looks good. Really good
I had my g slammed on bc coils over last winter and I picked up some 18s and didn’t realize they had such a crazy stretch on them at first. So for the next two weeks I had to drive to my cousins house for work, every morning in a development with absolutely brutal speed bumps. After the two weeks my 6 month old tomei catback looked like a waffle.
Great video for great information. PS. Whataburger is on fuggin TOP BOI
Great content 👌🤙🎱💯🏎
I meant to add on my first comment about going from a 18x8 with 225/45/18 to a 235/40/18 X 9.5. It’s literally a night and day difference on handling performance. Also the look is so good. You can see on my channel plus I got some BCracing Coilovers coming so I can take off my eibach pro kit lowering springs and KYB gas x struts. Lol
I’m gonna say this one more time till the video finally comes out we need a so you want a 350z🤦♂️pls I want one but I don’t know a lot about them and ik for sure this channel always has the best information
🙏🏼
This mans openers are legendary 😂🤦🏽♂️
Can you’ll make a video about Hyundai Veloster
How about coilover sleeves? Ive been thinking of getting one
Whataburger flex 💪🏼 ayyyeee!
Hi, I'm thinking of going for a stretch set up with a 17x9 +20 offset wheel and 205/50 tires as I want a bit of height. What do u think of this set up?
Bro, real talk though man, are you sick? If so bro I'm sorry to hear that my man, you've changed my life I use to be all about the drugs but now I have a found respect for lowering rides, and yah don't have much money for drugs when you're building a car. thank you for that my man ❤️ I hope you're all good
Just copped that shirt. It’s so doooppppeee!
AYE!!!!!! 🔥🙏🏼
Are those your new rims for the Porsche! Show me, way more please
Not gonna make a mistake stretching tires because I checked in the gallery before buying my wheels and tires from fitmentindustries.com
So you want a GLI? 😂i know you see this Alex we need more love to the GLI’s!🤘
I apologize for my ignorant statement about this in your previous video I learned a lot here thank you
205/40 r17 on 8.25 wide, looking to get Michelin pilot sport 4, bad idea?
More of a meaty tire guy myself. Has its own set of issues.
Meaty tyres on a track-focused car is where it's at!
The humor always kills me 💀, always informative tho 👌🏽
🙏🏼
What psi should I keep my tires at, 225/40/18 on a 9.5 wide
hi please help... I have a VW mk1 rabbit I want to stretch a lil bit.. but I also throw in a lil bit of performance too on the car, maybe should cruise at around 100 mph.. please help on what fitment and tires I should get.
Actually, can you do an episode on picking new rims and tires for your car.... that would be gooood
Looking for a summer tires for a 18 x 9.5 35 offset wheel for my mk4 vw 337 GTI . I’m looking for something in a 235/40/18 but has some stretch my car motion 500 hp I run Bilstien race suspension with nuespeed race springs lowered about 2”

@@FitmentIndustries Meanies
They got creative with the camera angles on this one
🙏🏼
What size would you tires do I use to stretch on 15x7
What are those wheels on the Audi in the thumbnail?
Okay CAN I run stretch tires on my mini VAN WILL WORK FOR THE BEST FOR ME IN LONG RUN KEEP💯
Do a video about a g35 or Lexus is300 please
Pretty much ever since I got my E34 I wanted to be part of that "stance" crew, get wheels that were poking out and run stretched tires. I've had my Rondell 0053 8.5 and 10 R17 for this summer and I've decided that I actually like the meaty setup better. I was running 225/45 in the front and 235/45 in the rear. I'll be putting up my wheels for sale this winter and will get some 8 and 9 style 5s or something and run the OEM setup on those. Can't wait.
Hope you're in good health bro.
Did you guys ever make a video from the car show in Appleton a few weeks ago? I saw a few pictures in this video but just curious to know where I can find the video if you guys did make one. Thanks.
Steve has something from that cooking for us right now, we got you homie stay tuned.
@@FitmentIndustries Dope! Looking forward to it!
where do ya'll get the beats
Is 205/40R17 good on 17x9’s ?
im late but that opening joke actually made me laugh out loud
I've never stretched my tires. Love the look, but hate the feeling. Living in Socal is not the place for stretched wheels
Also so you want a Honda coupe ( accord and civic ) day #8😅
ItsTrickshot JJ I’m telling you some of the worst roads is up in the north part of Illinois there are potholes the size of a dog

Try living in Michigan daily driving on stretched tires, let’s just say it’s a bitch but you get used to it. Little sketch though on some expensive rotiforms though haha

I would like to say that you're not speaking for all of socal. Driving a slam Toyota and I get around perfectly fine as my DD

I'm doing g 225 30 20 on a 9 inch
Rookie mistake I did was bought some wheels not thinking about the bore sized my car and the wheels.....🤔🤦♂️
Soooo what if u want a civic si WITH stretched tires
Best stretch look on a 20x8?! New to the car game, coming from lifted trucks
got my boss at mazda to help me w what tires to get. dude set me up w actual fire tires that are hard, stretch nice and also cheap. just gotta SEE how long it lasts
Good job some people think you’re sick now
Hey Alex, what's that chrome and gold wheel beside your head?
Klutch KF!
@@FitmentIndustries I cant find them :'l
No the one on the other side of your head😂
So your saying that federal, falken and Nankang tires are good for stretching? Which one should I go for?
Nankang's are probably the most common
That s2000 doh
Bought a set of too large of a rim size for my car without even buying coilovers. Had them in a box for over a year trying to sell them.
i got nankang 245 on my 10.5 rims
The curb rash pain is real :(
What tires do I put in a 16x8 for a lot of stretch
Check out our gallery for help with this! Or shoot us an email sometime! Wheels@fitmentindustries.com!
So tell me, the guy I bought my wheels from said a 235/45 will fit a 19.5 inch wheel. He had the same car as me, but he had a Genesis 5.0 R-Spec. I have the base 3.8 (sedan) and already placed an order on General Altimax tires. I couldn't go with a 245 bc it runs in the back.
He had Nitro Neo Gens and it had a bit of stretch. Can Generals stretch too?
Personally I would go with maybe Federal or Nankang as I know from what I have seen online from others that they stretch fairly well if not the best! Can't say I honesty have heard of people stretching Generals all that much, Hope this helps! - Erik
@@FitmentIndustries America's Tires doesn't have any federals so that was really my only choice. I have a Gift certificate there
They don't recommend more than 3 stages of stretch but they say perfect stretch setup for a 9.5 for example is 215/35 which is like 5 stage of tire stretching wtf I'm I wrong?
Please do "So You Want an Infiniti G35"
Please make a "So you want a Ford Fiesta ST" video
The only rookie mistake ive done is not checking my PSI on a pretty gnarly stretch :/ slow puncture = Pop! RIP TO MY LIP.
Do you also sell lifting kits?
We do not! @Custom Offsets would be your go to!
ALRIGHT ALEX, ALRIGHT. I GET IT. I just went and bought a shirt cuz I want some wheels. I’m sick of not being in the giveaway I want some damn wheels man.
Look just do a "so you want a 350z already, ive asked too many times
I am looking for a summer tires with some stretch for my 18x 9.5 35 offset wheels car it a mk4 vw 337 GTI with 500 hp .I run bilstien race suspension and nuespeed race springs what make tire for a 235/40/18 would be good for this application
If you want a good stretch, the 225 would give a more aggressive while the 235 would be a little more modest! Size wise that’s good 🤘🏾 -Edgar
Here are a bunch of options in the link homie! -Edgar

So I just sold a brand new set of 225/40/18 Indy 500 tires because not one shop around here would Mount then . So I was looking for a 235/40/18 in a summer tires with a little stretch
@@FitmentIndustries thank you but 225/40/18 will not work I had a brand new set of them and had to sell them because not one shop within 200 miles will Mount them on those wheels. I tried every performance shop around nobody will mark that size on those wheels
@@FitmentIndustries only size is the amount on those wheels for a 235/ 40/18 or 245 /40/18 so I wanted to go with the 235 but I’ve heard a lot of horror stories about tires that do not stretch and I need something that will stretch in that size that has good traction in the summertime We looked at like the noodles but I’ve heard they’ve had really big side walls I don’t want that
Dailying 165/50/15 on 7J on a four-fingers-off-the-ground-Civic in Portugal isn't the best idea.. Looks dope tho :D
TUGASTYLE98 what kinda fingers tho we talking lady fingers or those big meaty sausage fingers makes that can be 2inch diffrence
@@otisreading7559 Boii how 'bout 7cm? lol
Hi, will 225/40/r18 work on 18x9.5 +15? I'm gonna install some KW v2 coilovers.
What car fam? -Edgar
@@FitmentIndustries Scion tC 2015, but I bought some Cosmis S1 from you guys.
Have you looked on our gallery to get an idea? Should be able to find a setup similar to what youre going for! We appreciate the support, thank you! 🤝🤝🤝 -Edgar
225/40 on a 9.5 is that aggressive?
THAT is a lot of "FRICKEN MATH"!...
OMG! 🙀😿🙀😿🙀😿
Take care,

The wider and stretchier tires are, the better the car will look beefy as hell.😎😎😎😎

Anybody have any ideas on what I should do to make my 2009 Kia spectra look better?

Depends on your circle of friends and/or money you are willing to spend.
Yeah listing it on marketplace
Miracle from team liquid is good at cars
I'm a bigger tyre kinda guy
I run 235 in front on a 19" 225 rim
I run 265 in the back on a 19" 255 rim
Fit really nice in the fenders, cool stance and look menacing from the front and the back
3 different mechanics told me it is fine
Do a video on bigger tyres and what is considered safe, maybe?

@@alexstromberg7696 oh, so you must be thier spokesman. You speak for the family and alex right? Well, let me enlighten you, man...whats wrong with you? Youre going to take time to comment and say something about how i abrivated the word family isntead of showing compassion to somebody facing extremely unfortunate situation, Really? And it does, to some people it comforts them to know that others realize that the family of somebody who is terminally or lost somebody, appricates the fact that fact that the fam is hurting too. Dude its 2019, caring is cool, take your BS grammmmer police bullshit somewere else

Do you think 245/45r18 on 18x9.5 +38 okay?
Waaaaaaooooowww, stretched tires
Bmw e46 video
What's that E46 craze all of a sudden? Why is that car relevant now?
I went from a 18X8 wheel with 225/45/18 and it was just normal. Normal driving and normal everything else. No stretch or poke. Now I got new xxr wheels and they are 18X9.5 with 235/40/18. I really want a 235/35/18 tire on my new wheels. Think that’s ok? You can check my channel and see my new wheels and nittos. Thanks buddy for the help!!!!!!!!!!!!
In and out is better by far
So you want a corolla xrs
I have a stretch tire because when I bought my g37 it came that way 🥺.... just spent $1100 for some new tires, not trying to spend another 1k for some wheels(rims)
Didn’t know I stretched my tires and chipped a rim and now I learned after that they are stretched and feel stupid
My tip? Everyone has a different idea of what “supporting mods” are actually required. Try to find the person who’s broken the most shit and ask them. Everyone who says “you’ll only need it if you’re really really stressing it” is on borrowed time.
Please do a so you want a BMW M3
