    I get the same feeling looking at that car as when i see a 1978 caprice on 29" wheels!

    (wheels worth more than car )

    stretching tires makes the sidewalls super ****ty, not stiffer. its most likely cuz he likes the look / his fenders

    LOL just like a bench bolted to your trunk lid makes you can LOOOK fast. but in all reality it slows you down / kills your gas mileage.

    Since when did we start talking about big spoilers?

    Explain to me how the tires on thta 240 "kill" gas mileage and slow him down

    nice wheels, i'm not a fan of stretching the tire excessively over the rim.

    its hard to explain but the whole tire stretching thing makes the tires feel more direct... or more responsive... we use to do it when i raced go karts... and i see alotta drifters in vids with them... mainly 86's... it makes the steering feel more responsive... but i seriously doubt thats what he was going for with some ****ing 40 series and some 18's...

    green = new thing I guess. Doesn't look bad except for the car can be a lot better to match it with the wheels.

    Wheels = cost more than car.

    I love TE37s but 235 40 ZR 18s? I think wider, with a smaller diameter would better suit the body of an S13. Maybe 255 45R 17s. The wheels overpower that body's arches. And 235 is barely above my OEM grip (I know its 30mm over 240 stock but still, a little mild). Since you already spent the money, I'd say roll and pull those fenders (take your freakin time, patience is worth it for a quality job) and you'll get a better stance. Get some wider rubber on those TE37s to fit under the pulled fenders, those 235s are stretching.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    actually stock s13 tire width is 185, so 235-185=50mm. Its like 3rd period all over again huh...
    And i LOVE te-37s, concave ftw

    I thought you're sitting on 205s w/ stock rims......... okay well, significant improvement then, but that rim still looks like it'll take 255s no stretching, no problem.
