    That's a lot of stretching for a 8.5" wide wheel.

    Says who? A 225 is the widest you can go on an 8.5 before it doesn't count as "stretching" anymore. Stretching is a fat man wearing a Medium instead of XXL. A 225 on an 8.5 is said fat man wearing an XL...

    What can I say, I'm a master of simile...
