stretching characteristics of ES100's for 9F 10.5R

Hey guys, 
   trying to see if anyone is familiar with the stretching characteristics of the ES100. Mostly likely I will being with these. i wanted to see if you guys had pictures of different sized 'stretches' so i can compare. my set up is 20x9 + 30 and 20x10.5 +29 traffic star RTS going on a 98 GS. I like to ride at a ride high right on the tire. probably going to go with tein cs since its an everyday driver. going to also have the rear completely shaved and the fronts rolled. i want to be as flush as possible to the fenders so im thinking i might have to add a  spacers to the front, but not sure. any kind of input from you guys on tire size recommendation or anything else regarding fitment/suspension would be much appreciated.

wow, what are stretching characteristics!?

es100 stretch fine.  just as good as trampo, if not better, imo.

from what ive read different tires brands have totally different characteristics ie sidewall thickness, curved and square sidewalls, etc. im just trying to find wats good size for my set up with these tires.

thanks for the pic viplife. can you give me the wheel size/ width, and the tire size? So what tire size you think i should get for my set up? I dont want such an extreme stretch, just enough to ease rubbing issues.

i'd say 235/35 for the front and 255/35 for the rear.

275/35/18 on 18x13

caoboy,  do you think 225/35 will work for the front? and look even with 255/35R

ES100s strech nicely IMO. Theyre on the noisy side though and tire wear isnt great from what ive seen.
