Poke and stretch..the way of the future.

I agree flush is flush and full fender well looks better then one with excessive gaps. Tire, Wheel, and Fender should all be in a straight line. I ordered some 100 spokes for a buick that I had back in the day and the tires were stretched on them. yep, was sitting drug dealer style, which I do not recommend unless you enjoy attention from the boys in blue.

I did not like the look or the reliability of them. I hit a construction zone and bent the crap out of one of my wheels (inside and outside lip), bouncing me against the ceiling in the process. I would not recommend stretched tires on rims, it doesn't look right because it's not right.

When it's said and done, you live and learn. So if you would rather learn at your own expense then by all means go ahead.
