Streched Tyres?

[Elliott]

Do you have to buy percific stretched tryes or do you just buy normal tyres and have them stretched on? As i would like some for my Rallye Steel Wheels which are 185/55/14

I think that you just buy normal tyres and can stretch them on, but i know that they are a lot more expensive

alot more expensive? normal tyres?

[steve_335]

Yeah because they are narrower, like you get on classic cars, so not many places do them, meaning the price is hight than the cost of a normal tyre.

Yep, on alloy wheels you are ok but steel wheels.. getting thinner tires for steel wheels is hard job. I had my old BK Racing alloys with stretched tires, looked the beans!

if you have s2 steels you can buy 195/45/14 tyres to go on them.

Surley thats the opposite of stretching?? Wont that make em pretrude form the edge of the rim?? I'd have thought a steelie would be something like 155 wide??

Stretching is normally extra wide rims with normal sized tyres!
