What is the point of stretched tires from a performance standpoint? It looks horrible...and I'm sure it's not very good on the tires either. Talk about retarded.

it pretty much only helps in drifting. a stretched sidewall and less flexy tire will be easier to slide, but at the same time harder to control snap oversteer when linking. its a double edged sword....

but even drifters have some commen sense as to what is too much...

and this.... is too much. lol.
