VOTBLINDUB is an unknown quantity at this point

i could prolly do something similar on my car if i was going to tuck in the 19s, but i sadly cant cuz of the crummy roads and winter and all that jazz. i dont think id go THAT far stretchin it, but i think a little bit would look good tuckin rim

I think it's gay. Personal opinion, but why would you spend all that money and NOT use all the available width for rubber? I don't think we're going to be going DORIFTO around here, so sidewall stiffness ain't the issue. If it is.. get real tires

You know what else would probably fit?

Properly sized wheels/tires

done for fitment?!?! ahhaa... yeah when you try and put 12 inch wide rims where only 9 inchers will fit, but it doesn't make it right. Buy the proper size wheels and tires!!
