I f*cking hate these people. Seriously grow up.
Kumhos are pretty fat from my experience. They don't like to be stretched. So I might have some room thanks

I don't plan on daily driving my car. So I'm probably far from messing up. And I don't like putting myself or anyone in danger. Im doing aggressive fitment BC I really want to, and I enjoy the scene.

Don't listen to fools like that. I'm running Kumho tires right now. 205 35 18 on a 18x10, it's a pretty big stretch but if thats what you're going for it can be done! I've always heard that yokohoma tires are stretch friendly, as well as federals. Personally I like the Kumhos because they are cheap and I have about -5 degree camber right now so I run through tires.

I'll just leave this here. Static. Breaking parts. 1" Contact Patch. I love putting people in danger. You're welcome.

Not currently. My Frs is sitting in the garage due to all the snow and rain we've been getting here in NC. I have a website for you though, I use it a lot.

http://www.tyrestretch.com

Just type in a set up and it'll show you photos of people who have the same set ups, it even shows the tire they used.

I'm going to get an alignment later this week to see what the degree of camber is. I'm guessing -10ish? idk.
