O.K., But the tire shop I used before I retired was very straight on using the right tires on the right rims, On a show truck, I could see it , but a working truck, or a trailer hauler, I just hate it.
There is a kid in town with a old Honda civic that must have came off a wrecker, hay wire and tape holding it together, wide low slicks and muffler that cost a pile, sounds like a 50cc 2 stock bike . Love to see it in the winter time with 6 in fresh snow. That would go for these truck wheels.

come to Calgary. i took find you 20 "import" shops in the NE of the city alone that would be happy to do it for you, along with sell you Chinese tires you never heard of:)

I've never understood stretching tires. I see it a lot where I live, but not my thing.

If you want to replace your tie rod ends and ball joints every 2 to 3 years, go ahead and do it. IMHO, it is a dangerous thing to do. Steering will be affected (groves in the road will pull the truck to one side or the other) and it is very rough on the steering components.

Wow so many negatives.

Same as the hi assed jacked up trucks rolling down the 401 at a buck forty. I don’t see the point but it’s not my point to make.

Man it’s your truck your look. You’re not doing it for anyone else so **** ‘em. Just try to keep it safe!

I cannot stand seeing tires stretched. Buy tires that fit. To each their own but it looks like pure ****.
