Default ap2 V1 tire strech question

anyone ever use 225 size tires on the rear rims of the ap2 v1? I was wondering if its a lot of tire stretch?
I was thinking if i had a little tire stretch and rolled fenders i could use spacers to get good flushness.

I just dont want to comprimise to much traction or look a lil funny.

appreciate the feed back.

Trying to induce oversteer? But since you mention "flushness" it's obvious this if a form-over-function consideration. Looks over performance.

Incidentally 255 tires will fit on the rear without buggering the fenders. And they look great!

Just stick to the 245 and run a spacer if you want to push the wheels out more flush.

^He is asking about running a spacer but then not rolling the fenders. Either run the spacer and the OEM tire size and roll the fenders or don't run the spacer and leave the fenders alone but still run the tire size.
