      Oh I know good sir. No need to get flustered. I was just stating a little opinion of mine.

          I get why you are doing it, I still don't like stretch.  How does the bead stay seated?  What happens when you corner hard?  Not being a jerk, it really doesn't make sense to me.

            There is a chance that the bead could come unseated from a big pothole. I definitely need to avoid those because I do not want to bend lips. Hard corners have never been an issue in the past. You just need to keep them properly inflated and then there usually is no issue.

                  the worst feeling is seeing one too late, sitting up on the wheel, closing your eyes, gritting your teeth

                  bam, day ruined.

                      Haha I know you dont like stretch TJ;) At least the wheels will hopefully make you still love them regardless of the major stretch.

                            I can bring a wheel to show you once theyre built with tires mounted.

                              Whoever said those tire sizes wouldnt stretch on your wheel widths is out of their mind.  I wanna see them in person!  Are they at your house or the dirty-30?

                                You know exactly who would have told me they wouldn't be a stretch. Lol Thou who hast not posted today. Also, those are just pictures from offline. My faces are still in Delaware and the lips are in California.

                                        the wheels are cool, but the tires are unfortunate at best.
