Anyways anyone know? appreciate it.

Yeah, buy the right sized tire. That is way too stretched, if you corner hard once you'll break the bead. I got 2 265/35 R18 for sale.

That's not even that much a stretch. Call around to your local shops and see what they say. Also, try a quick search. I remember seeing a thread quite a while back that had a few recomendations for shops.

Its not that bad, i got one on with a lil effort....and iam drifting not really road racing....that and without a stretch it will suck to try and get them to fit the car without over fenders or something.

Starter fluid. That's how I did mine!!!!!!!! Take the shrader valve off and boom you go. No one would mount mine, so I searched a little....got a little flamed on, but all came out good.
Do what you want and good luck....
