So what, some people like the rim to be the focus a bit more than the tire. A bulging donut wouldn't work on his setup and I think it would look retarded. Looks good OP, maybe a little more tire shine next time?

Never said I didn't like them. I'm just not a fan of the stretched tire look. This isn't a Honda or something. If they are the Big Street classics then a 335 would fit perfect on back and be flush with no stretch.

Its all good, i get that comment quite a bit. i dont blame them, it is a 295 on a 12 inch wide wheel... but i personally dont mind the look.
If i put the right size tire on, it will both rub on the inside and stick out on the outside. so there is no point in tubbing because i dont want to spend a grand plus paint for fender flares right now.

They aren't big streets, hence the 3'' lip in the rear and 2'' lip in the front.

Nice looking rims, I wouldnt call the rear tires stretched, they are simply the wrong size....way too small for the rim.
