Mild stretch on S14

[MisterDrifter24]

I have a 95 240SX and my wheels are 18x8.5 in the front and 18x10 in the rear. Currently I have 245-40-18 and 275-35-18. I was thinking of using a 225-35 and 255-35. Would that be a safe mild stretch or can I go a little smaller. I do some heavy drifting and drive aggressively pretty much 24/7. I would like a mild safe stretch so it looks nice and i can lower the car a bit more. If someone could give me a little help on my decision it would be great. Thanks.

HEAVY DRIFTING IS THAT WHEN YOU SLIDE WITH THREE FAT GUYS WITH YOU?

BUT BESIDES THAT YOUL HAVE NO BROBLEMS STRETCHING THE 8.5 225 AND THE 10 INCHERS TO 235-245

225 and 255 will just make the tire flush if you want a little stretch then do 215 in the front and 245 in the rear

only cool kids put 225's on a 10

My car is 9's and 10's and I run 225's.

You're not going to get much stretch on the 8.5's, the wheel isn't wide enough. You could do a 215 if you don't care about contact patch, but I wouldn't.

Rear whatever you feel is stretched enough 225, 235, 245, 255 <not much stretch depending on brand of tire.

Heavy drifting, LOL.

I drift in this empty warehouse behind my house and the place is like dorifto heaven. I did one 2 weeks ago on film doing like 65mph. The floor is so perfect and i did it. with 3 people in the car. I just dont want the tire to pop off doing 60mph.

225 all the way around is your best bet.

I got 17x9 fronts and 17x10.5 rears.
I refuse to go smaller or bigger than a 225 in the front, and on my 9" front its an alright stretch. Not crazy, but I think its perfect.
In the rear I run anything from a 235 to a 275. I think the 235 looks a lil silly on the 10.5, but a 245/40 sits awesome.
This is all my opinion though, of course. Some people like more of a stretch, some people like less. I could give a shit what it looks like, aslong as it feels good when I drive.
