Only Primacys look stretched, they run narrow.

The 215 Falkens i have are flush and pretty every other 215 looks flush too.

Sorry to thread jack but will it be ok to run the factory Michelin sport 4 on a 8.5 inch wheel? I found a set of 8.5 inch wide wheels locally at a good price and want to reuse the OE tires. I just want to make sure it's safe should i take the car to the track.

Thanks.

Michelin says the 215/40-18 is good for 7.00-8.50" wide rims.

I did see that but wanted to know if people have used this kind of stretch on track. I am pretty sure I will be ok but just wanted to solicit the advice of the experienced.

Thanks.

I'm sorry about that. I thought you were asking if they would physically fit. Should be perfectly safe, though.
