Icon2 Stretched Wheels & Tires ??

What Is A Good Setup For A Legit " Stretched Out " Look On A 89' EF Hatch?
I Was Going To Go With Some OG OldSchool Rims On It, On Some 165/50/15 Nexen Tires.

What Do You Guys Think ????

"I don't care if it's safe"

Wise words.

I bet the parents of the person/people you injure/kill because something happens will care.

There's no way this is genuine.
We're being trolled by someone addicted to hard narcotics with a prejudice against Honda.

This one needs to be locked

This guy asked a simple question and all you guys attacked it like a pack of e-thugs!

Sure share your guys opinions, but why chew him out? Forums are to "inform", not insult..

Anyway here's some setups i ran..


First 15x8 on a 175/50..









Second is 15x6.5 on a 165/50 tire..








My fenders are rolled and rears have minor pull..

From the Forum Rules and FAQ:
10. Do not ask about "stretching" tires onto wheels that are too wide.
All such topics will be locked. Tire manufacturers determine the wheel widths onto which each model and size tire can be mounted safely, and you can find the range of these wheel widths in the specs on their websites as well as those of retailers like the Tire Rack. Mounting tires onto wheels outside this range of approved wheel widths is unsafe because it can, and often does, result in the buildup of excessive stress and heat in the tire sidewalls, which can lead to the tire "popping the bead" and/or tire failure. Make sure your tires are mounted on wheels whose widths are within the approved range.
This type of question is better suited for the Appearance forums, if anywhere.
