streched tire's 225 on a 9.5

Anyone have any tips on how to mount 225 40 tires on a 18x9.5 rim. I have run out of ideas. I have 2 brand new 225's that I thought would be easy to mount, but that is not the case.

I'm sure the flaming will start in 3....2.....1.

i did it. just find someone with a cheeta machine. or you can actually pay someone to do it. the machines at Kreamer are always only 1-3 years old, and they cost 25,000 for a reason.

That shouldn't be a problem finding a shop to do that. Try the usual tire shops.

I had 245s on a 10" wheel.

My stock tires are 255 on a 9.5 wheel. I don't think yours should be a problem but I could be wrong

I plan on running a 205/50 on a 10 inch wheel...so that should be interesting when that happens. Haha...as far as a place to do it go to a wheel place I guess, a place that specializes in it.

carlton is running a 195 on a 9inch rim. with his new lips he will run some 205s on 10.5 rim. you just can drive the car real hard or the bead pops off.
