    streched on stock rims?

    I'm trying to put some stock 85 supra rims on my 77 celica and am running into clearance issues in the front.

    I found this sticky. (really helpful)

    But i was a little curious what these rims would look like stretched. I searched around and cant seem to find any pictures of people doing it. Anyone have any pics or seen it done?

    I had a set of 195/60/14 BF Goodrich Radial TA's on the front of an 85 Celica GT I used to own. It was lowered and the tires fit with no issues.
    Not sure if it helps you or not. I may have a picture of it somewhere on my computer.

    it looks like straight SHIT! one of my buddies has a parts car with P-types on it with skinny tires stretched on them. it makes a Huge amount of lip show. and not the way people want. better off grabbing some L-types or something.
    The Supra is gone... What a fun project!

    I must agree... I had a set of 175-65-14s given to me and I ran them on the front for a little while til I could get what I needed and they looked like shit. not to mention handled like shit because the contact patch is the size of a fruit by the foot!
