Last I checked this guys car, along with the red GTO, hasn't spontaneously combusted and killed a family of four because of their ride height and/or their wheel/tire setup.
I can't tell the extent of the stretch, but again, it's still not smart. I'm not referencing the lowering or the wheel choice. I'm referencing putting the proper tire on that wheel you choose.
What I don't think you are understanding is that I'm saying it isn't a bright idea to do it. Not that you can't.

Are those the XXR 521's wheels on there? If so, I hope the wheels can handle the weight of the car. It doesn't look to bad except for the "American Muscle" factor is gone now. Looks like one of the cars off Tokyo Drift or something.

Well I see people arguing about the safety of stretching tires all of the time but have yet to see any evidence of accidents cause because of stretched tires. That's all I was really getting at. Drifters stretch tires that are used on track and they don't explode. They wear until there is a hole in the tire and it gets changed. People driving their daily car on stretched tires, at the speed limit, really isn't a problem. On track, stretched tires are just silly, I agree.

yanko, educate me on this development
u rite. Until I see solid proof, I'll continue to say stretched tires are perfectly safe.

i spot alot of vws daily. I was unaware there was some faggoty ass wave that went along with owning a volkswagen.
Thats funny right there. This is my first vw, and im learning this is totally a trend. I was the asshole for awhile because i didnt wave. I do wave now, but only at nice ones.
I always see this green mkvi jetta with a random assortment of what I'm going to assume are donuts. Looks like it can be a good looking car when the wheel situation is settled. I see it in greenbrier/ battlefield all the time. No offense. My wheel situation isn't much better for the moment.
Also see a real loud black fit all over greenbrier.
