I really like the wide or stretched look and i want to see some pics of this on e92's, Im not planning to roll the fenders but some 285s on 10.5s would look sweet in the rear think and maybe a 9" up front. Not sure if i want WIDE or Stretched. some 245 would stretch nice

I dont know what will fit but i would love some info on this

Thanks

285 is not at all stretched on a 10.5" wheel and neither is a 245 on a 9" wheel.

OP: With a stretched tire, you'll be able to push your rim closer to the fender without the tire coming into contact with the fender since it's stretched. A meatier, 'wide' setup will be the opposite. The rim itself will have to sit closer underneath your car since with a fatter tire, you'll need space for it so it doesn't come into contact with your fender.

Meaty setup:


Stretched setup:
