Same stretch as a 265 on 10.5 which is almost nothing in the world of stretching tires.

I would not run 265 s on 10.5 either. Who cares, it is a show car at these settings not a performance car.

I would run no less than the stock size and likely find a wide running tire at that for 9.5. For 10 or above, 275s.

You spend too much time on forums. Someone on here has to tell you to STFU.

You have nice wheels but I'm not a fan of the stretched out tire. I used to have a 275 on 10.5 and that was enough stretch for my liking.

Riiight. I guess I spend way too much time here. Just look at my massive post count.
It's obvious you're a little butthurt.

its an Evo not a honda.. looks great.. loses functionality.. thanks for posting.
235 on a 9.5 is necessory if you expect to be low and have tire tucking. I never scrape or hit my fender liner unless I hit a big bump. I don't see how I lose functionality I can drive around town just fine I can take corners just fine. My car is ment for the street not the track. A lot of ignorance on this forum

People around here like to throw around their ignorance and dictate to others what THEY think you should be doing with your car/money. I think I'm going to start whining to all Evo owners out there who aren't running their cars in rally events every now and then because that's what the car was designed for.

You are free to do whatever with your car and money. Some of us just dont see the point in modding a performance car to perform worse.

For a car that is sold to consumers, it's used by consumers so it works for the consumer the way they want to use it for. Not everyone is forced to use it for it's legendary past or present capabilities. In the end, it's a consumer car so deal with the nature of it.

Again. Negative. i have tucked tire with 255 on my 10.5 inch rim. i can also tuck my 275 on my 10.5 inch rim. it all depends on your camber.

if you say you never scrape i'll call the bull**** flag on that one. give it a while and that front rubber piece on your aero kit will come right off.

wwixmr - stop trying to be an ethug.. your car is not even lowered. "scared to roll fenders" (found it on one of your post) i too know how to search for all your post. All you do is post in this thread the ww thread and ask/give opinions on what and how peoples car look like.

Exactly the same thing im doing giving MY opinion on how his car looked liked. I never mentioned it didnt look good, because obviously it does. He has a brand new 2012 evo that he has probably never even gone hard on turns. runs a ****ty suspension and dumps the car tucking 235 inch tire.

The new trend is out there. "HELLAFLUSH" "STANCE". To some maybe appealing to others it may be ridiculous. But EVERYONE can voice their opinion and that is what i am doing.

Knowledge and experience is overwhelming. I have owned an 2 evo's since 2005 and 11 other hondas/nissans that have been "SLAMMED/DUMPED/TIRE POKE/STRETCH" i do know how to poke i do know how to stretch and i know how to ride slammed since probably you owned an evo. So dont judge by my post count.

Learn how to use proper suspension and use what your 30k+ car was designed for. Undercarriage damage, transfer case, transmissions, oilpan damage will make your "slammed" ride look even better parked in your garage or on the tow truck.. trust me been there and done that.

thanks for your opinions please look at evasive evo's "slammed,tucked tire,wide width, low offset rim" has style and has purpose. i also commend all of those who also run 10.5 or wider rims that has low offsets and too has purpose.

"Aggressive WHEEL thread" not "slammed, dumped, tire poke/stretch thread"
