People stretch truck tires?
Serious question,
I was driving down Jefferson and noticed this Silverado had some crazy offset truck wheels and the tires that were mounted to them were easily stretched 2 to 2 1/2 inches on either side. Think 12 inch wide wheel with 8 inch worth of tread but they weren't low profile or anything, they were your standard 33" off roading tires.
It was otherwise 100% stock looking truck.
Is this really a thing people do? It looked pretty sketchy. When I was stopped beside him you could see budges in the sidewall where they're going to eventually fail.

Well I have done it many times. I dont tink I have any pics of my nissan but I had 14" wide boggers on 14" wide rims and it looked good as shit and it actually wore the tires even. It took a case of ether to get them on tho. LOL
OH and would rep back nftuatn but it says I must spread some around first. But I take it you you like the care bear idea also?
EDIT I forgot about these. I had them on my blazer and they are 12.5 on 12 wides.
