I need to stop, and remember that this Z crowd only likes the popular ideas and that we lack any original ideas.

Being safe and taking, for example, tire racks recommendations on tire size=wheel width, isn't the popular idea, it's the intelligent one. Want to be original? Do it with something that doesn't cost your life or my family's if you have a blow out if the highway next to me! If the crash doesn't kill you, my sig will.

If you look at tire size recommendations from Tire Rack for example they give you a range. Within that range you can stretch tires, or get to big of a tire size and you can do the same thing with a stretched tire break the bead and pop a tire.

Terrible that you would shoot someone over an accident.

It's not stretched within that range. Its normal. Hence that's why they listed it within that range. Unless I'm missing something this is about a "stretched" thread. Hence not within the range. For example the OP listed a 255/30/20 on an 11" wheel. Thats 1 inch over whats normal/safe.

Being an idiot is not an accident! They did **** on purpose for whatever reason and hurt my family because of it. I'd expect anyone to do the same. I'll smack a bitch doing makeup or texting too.
