Default "Meaty Tyre thread" - No stretch plz!

In dedication to Nasiocs "Meaty Tyre Thread", this is Scoobynets version, the opposite of the Non-Euro dub stretch look . Dont get me wrong, I like em stretched but these days prefer a bit of non veg meat!

So if you'v got wide tyres, tyres bulging out of your arches or tyres bulging of your rims then this is the thread to be in. No stretch no alloy wheel lip poking out!!
Here's a few from the Nasioc thread from over the pond to get the ball rolling

Wrong fitment on the opposite end of the scale which actually looks more aggressive than running a condom on the rim.

Thanks, but they're old pics. I need to update the pics - it's not quite so subtle anymore
