If you're an attention whore, I guess that's the style of tire you'd want. If you want any amount of survivability out of it, don't run your rubber like that.
If you're an individual, it's all about whatever you choose to do. If you're a lemming, it's all about whatever some "phat" industry / rap / "scene" mogul tells you is fresh and now. In that case, it's all about Escapes running oversize tires and I'll be happy to sell you mine at a small premium. Be the first on your block, yo!

Stretch is the way to go, hands down. I had them on my S4 and i want to put them on my audi cabrio. And that focus looks bad ass, kit and wheels, it all looks good, sweet package no doubt.

stretched tires look badass on a nice deep dish euro rim, but it's not practical for daily driving on the s*** roads of the G.T.A. let alone southern ontario as a whole. It's already a headache to ride lowered on coilovers, I could imagine coilovers and stretched tires. :blink:

You would be one of very few if not the only in the GTA with a dropped AWD Fusion, and it would look killer. I am sure you wouldn't notice the difference in ride with the stability and weight of the AWD. But with the current condition of the roads in the area it doesn't matter what you have you still feel all the s#!tty potholes.
