    40s arent bad to mount, one step down to 35s/30s when you start going slower to avoid scratching the rim, unless it allow a reverse mount, 215 on 9.5s are pretty big of a stretch

    i know those VW owners are all over tire stretching.

    man anyone who can't mount low pro's shouldn't be touching aftermarket wheels. taking off them is the hard part, but thats is you use a maximum size tire on the rim. streched tires is a joke. people always think they are hard but in reality they are easy

    the guys at the front counter at kal tire are retards

    they thought i was crazy when i mounted a 205/40r17 on a 17x9

    when you want tires installed just tell them the size you want. and a 215/45r17 on a 9 you don't even need to blast.

    stretching tires makes your wheels look like they just had a rectal prolapse.

    obviously i don't get the whole point to stretching on s13's

    really its a fitment thing, if your running gay ass offset wheels your better off just doing a simple tire. but when your trying to fit a 17x9 0 offset wheel up front or in the rear on stock body you need to do a bit of a roll with a stretch

    yep, that KalTire is a joke. there are a couple of us on beyond who work/worked there, and im sure every one of us would tell you that the guys working at the front counter (with the exception of a one GIRL) know absolutely nothing about tyres, wheels, cars, life, personal hygiene...etc
