Im curious to what you guys have done on your stretch. Specs would be cool too! I am going for my biggest stretch this season since i started the whole fitment thing and have a few shows i plan on attending 5-7 hours away from me.
Looking at doing 215/40 on a 9.5 and 225/40 on a 10.5
So what is the furthest you have driven? And on what stretch?![]()

I haven't really driven to far in a single trip. 2 hours would be about the longest on a 215/40 on 18x9.5. However I do daily it, so the total amount of hours is up there haha.

I just put on 215/40 on a 17x9.5 but havent driven very far but around town. But seeing all these guys driving really far on them makes me feel alot better about my tires getting worn down or the bead popping off lol
I've driven just under 600 miles in one day. From Portland to Seattle, then to Port Townsend, down the coast then back over to Portland. This was with ZE512 205/40/16 on 16x8.5 wheels with -2* camber. I encountered some seriously shitty roads too (Tacoma/Seattle). I didn't have a single issue, besides some pucker moments i.e. catching air and stuff.
