not really advisable on skinny standard wheels, because you'll have to get some extra tiny tyres on there to get any hint of a stretch and you'll have about as much grip as bambi on ice.. thats why most tyre places wont touch it.

stretch tyres on 15's.. you'd need about a 90mm drop for it to not look like a 4x4 :grin:
