i’d love to own a cheetah tank but i can’t see spending that much when it’s so cheap for a lighter and some starter fluid!

im running 215-45-17 on my 9.5’s and 205-45-17 on the 8.5" wheels

tires are Falken Ziex ZE512. i guess they stretch VERY easily and dont bubble like alot of cheaper tires.

IDK pretty easy to stretch them, just used air. But the Works have such smooth barrels, it’s easy to stretch anything on them.

falkens are known to stretch really well.

my Vette wheels are smooth, no crazy transitions in the inner area.
