Below are 49 real-world examples of 205/40 R17 tyres stretched onto 9J rims, submitted by the community. Tyre stretch is the look created when a 205/40 R17 tyre is fitted to a 9J rim (about 229 mm wide), wider than the tyre's nominal width, pulling the sidewall taut for a flush, stanced fitment. Browse the photos below to see how different tyre and wheel brands look at this combination.
Twenty-four millimetres of stretch takes this 205/40 close to the heavy boundary on its 229mm rim. The sidewall angle is unmistakable on a 17, the wheel lip standing well proud of the tread. E36 and S13 builds account for most of its use in the scene, typically alongside deep-lipped three-piece wheels.
