yeah I'm sorry but when you say camber and flush...i think things like functionality over form, structural integrity, negative camber for a purpose rather than a form, 205mm=7.0in---wheels that don't fucking poke out of the tires therefore sacrificing the tires' structural integrity lol.
Poke n' stretch is fucking ridiculous. Get tires that fit your god damn rim
Best. Statement. Ever.Quote:

you should give your car to someone who cares a little more about it... LIke me so it can sit right beside my 3g race car.Quote:

I built it into a race car, because I like to be different as well. And I respect that.Quote:

There is arguably a slight performance increase in a stretched sidewall, Not extreme like a 195 tire on a 9'' rim. But stretching the sidewall makes the sidewall more rigid, by limiting how much the contact patch can deflect on the rim. The tire will then have a better response, increasing the cars turn in and less tire roll.
Honestly the way you want to run the car to get the tire to fit doesn't do anything to help the car and you will probably kill the cars ride comfort and handling. Running -5+ camber front and rear then slamming it, isnt the way to do it.
Cut and radius the fenders to fit around the tire it gives a much better non ghetto look.
Here is a link to a VW guy that did it HE did an extreme version but you get the point. For the record this is exactly how I intend to do my race car when i get ready to lower it some more.
