What do you think would be a good size tire to stretch on a 20x10.5 wheel? I don't want too much of a stretch. Just a little for some fender clearance.
I'm running a 285/25/20 nitto invos which has no stretch on it.

I have 265 on a 19x10... barely any stretch.
I had 285 on 20x10 ...no stretch I had 315s on 20x10.5 ...no stretch lol To answer your question I would do a 275 |

255/30/20 or a 265/30/20 would be good.
couple questions: are you stretching the front tire also? if so what size tire are you running? what are your offsets? Right now I'm running a 275/30/20 on a 10.5 and the stretch is little. It would only be noticeable to people who know what a stretch is... this is a 255/30/20 on a 10.5 wheel

why do you want to stretch tho? is your car lowered? are you running into clearance issues?
stretched tires on cars with wheel gaps look stupid and ghetto.

im running 285/25/20 nitto invos which have a round sidewall whereas the 285/25/20 falken 452s are bulky and give me rubbing issues... the nitto invos are perfect but they are on backorder and wont be available for a little while (who knows when). so i have the option of the falken 452s but im going to need to stretch it a little to clear the rear fender.
Thanks for the help!

Not to sound rude but why are you running such a small tire?? I have the same exact setup with 265 in the rears and i might switch them to 285 or get 10mm spacers. Your dropped but not a lot. Just wondering why you went that route? Also you need 15mm spacers for the rear...Tucked in with that tire. |

i stretched 245/35R20 on my X5 rear wheels (10.5") and 225/35R20 on front (9.5") if that helps at all... if you want pics let me know... they are hella stretched and unfortunately my main road to my house isn't paved yet so i have rock chips because the rim sits so low :/

I run 315s and 275s... I was going to go do 315s all around but decided not to. Did you cheap out? Its a BMW not a JDM car. I hate that stretched look and on a X5 looks ghetto. Im sorry and I want to see pictures. Im sorry if I was rude. |
