    so the other day i decided to use a spare .com address i had and make a new site. I trawled the forums and saved the pictures of various stretches that i could find and made a list.... Hopefully it'll be useful to some and make all those pic requests a thing of the past.

    Very early days so any suggestions, fire away [:D] . If anyone has any pics to add, email them over to me (thebluebus@hotmail.com). Also if anyone can identify some of the tyre makes, let me know and i'll get it updated

    This won`t fit in with your site content, by I find it interesting all the same.

    tyres growing taller due to centripetal acceleration? unlikely to be stretched

    these look pretty good on strippers, but they're useless for running 100m

    same as stretched tyres really, just for static display

    nice site, stretched tyres are killer. didnt even think anything of it when my friends used to get their whitewalls mounted on the wires for their lowriders , 155/70/ r13 was the size i think on a 13x7r rim. used to use a bead cheater to get em on
