Tire Stretch Question

I'm new to this forum and I have a question; I just purchased a set of yokohama S-drives in 225/35/20 to put on a 8.5" wide rim front and 245/35/20 to put over a 10" wide rim rear.....Does anyone have any picture of that same setup??????=)

a 225 on a 8.5 is not much of a stretch at all....

I'm running a 245 on a 10" wide wheel also. I'm hoping to go down to a 235 soon to eliminate some slight rubbing on the rear fender.

It's a nice stretch though. I also have a 215 on a 8.5 up front. It's not as aggressive of a stretch as up front, but it works for clearance issues. If i could find a 205/35/19 i'd add a 5mm spacer to my setup with a tad bit of camber up front. :drool:
