Stretch question
So I'm running 17x9 all around. I'm looking for a stretched fit. I ran with 225/35 all around, but the 35 was far too thing for the rears. I know... I know... my fault. Trial and error.... Anyway. I'm looking at a 215/40 now and was wondering since it'll stretch on a 9" will a 215/40 be equivalent to a 225/35 as far as wall size? I'm trying to tuck tire and still want clearance for my rims/wheels. Let me know what size is good. I'll be running +32 if that makes a difference.

225 x .35 = 79mm sidewall
215s or 225s on 9" wheels =
To each his own, I guess...
