What do you s550 guys prefer with the tire set up ? you guys prefer the more "beefy" flush look or the something with a little stretch and flush look.

I personally prefer a minor stretch flush accommodated with a nice drop.

what do you guys prefer ?

it really depends on the ride height.. if a minor drop is in the cards id go beefy.. if bagged or lower then 1.5 inch id go maybe a tiny stretch.. ive had plenty of both lol now with my new mustang im going to beefy flush.. my other was tiny stretch cause i was lowered 1.5 front 1.3 rear

Beefy flush gets my vote lol.

My 305 MPSS mounted on a 11" wheel are a little stretched IMO and I hate it.

I prefer vertical.
It depends on the tires. Some tires are a little stretched looking some are vertical.

One of the things I dislike the most about general Mustang modifications is the staggered wheel look which is almost always accentuated by oversized rear tires.

Voted slight stretch.

Slight stretch. On just about any car.


"Beefy" is a bit too bulged for me, too reminiscent of the time when you couldn't get wheels anywhere near as wide as you can today . . . and people would squeeze L60's and N50's down onto 7" wheels anyway. Ugh :barf:

stretched out women and stretched out tires are both bad........:tsk:
Would the mental image of Sophia Vergara stretching out a sweater change your mind at all? ;)

Honestly it's a matter of taste. Recently I bought new rims 11/10 and put existing tires on them 275/255. They were stretched and according to tire charts safe. I hated the look and quickly replaced with 305/285. Very pleased with the look and performance.
