Bc that's the look that I want. Those wheels tires aren't gonna be used for anything but dd. I'll be using my stocks foe autox and any other kind of aggressive driving.
I realize that tire stretching is a love hate relationship between people, so I understand that some people aren't gonnanlike nor agree with it. I used to not like and still not a fan of the huge stretch where there is like 1-2" of wheel sticking out. I understand that I will be loosing some handling on the car due to lower amount of tire contact and I'm ok with that because I know I'm not going to be racing the car through canyons. So, I know some people are gonna are it and that's you right to voice that opinion.
Anyways, thanks for checking out my thread. LOTS of parts coming in today.

It's your car and all, but it just seems odd.

There is absolutely no love/hate relationship with 8" rims with 215 tires... It is str8 up hate.
It's one thing to have stretch because you need it, it's another thing to have it because you don't understand where the stretch scene came from.
Otherwise nice car... until it looks awkward on that tire/rim combo.
