hope this helps....

Ohhh right. Got it now. Well I didn't know that you can stretch those bloody things!

Wouldn't it affect it in anyway?

By the way I love that 2nd link you posted. Seen it before, not sure if you remember.

stretched tyres means less protection for the wheel as the wheel will stick out slightly from the tyre...
