Default tires? how they ride streched?

So I was just woundering if anyone has had any experience driving on streched tires? I wanted to now if they are extremly stiff and how long they last? and if they will still have enough grip to safely drive in the rain?

this is a sore subject on H-T, if u wanna stretch your tires only do it if its a show car. totally stupid and unsafe to do it to a daily/track car.

x2. It seems that these people in these generations nowadays, think that you could drive on "stretched tires" for DD or track, just bcuzz it looks kool or sicc. Even tho you drive it on the streets, it's very unsafe, especially with extreme negative camber.

stretched tires are for volkswagens, because they don't run so it really is never a danger to them.

stretched tires look retarded as ****, and they aren't safe to top that off. i'm sure it'll become the next new fad soon enough though.
