Wow, I'm surprised this topic went anywhere given the vague original post.

I'm also surprised that Frank doesn't feel that anyone has aggressively fit a One yet. In my mind any setup that scrubs is aggressive. Largely due to limited wheels choices that would fit better, we have a few dozen members on this site that are rolled, cambered, trimmed, etc and still scrubbing. I guess I haven't seen any seriously stretched tires on Ones but that's about it. Btw, another big concern with stretching is you have your rims sticking out exposed to all sorts of curbing type damage that can occur without even hitting a curb.

My rolled fenders and slightly stretched rears still scrub. That's too aggressive for me. I'm planning to try to have my wheels machined, if not I'll just try to find a tire width/side profile that will fit better.

I'm running Hankook 245/35's on my 19x9.5 et 45 rears. I was just researching published tread widths, weights, etc. earlier today. I had planned Sdrives but now today I think I changed my mind and will try some General Exclaim UHPs. The Generals are listed 2lbs lighter and with a 0.6 inch less wide tread width at $28 less per tire and a higher surveyed rating. I hear they have a relatively soft sidewall too which is also something I don't.

Anyone here have experience with Generals?

now that my 1er is in order, im def gonna try to push the offsets as much as i can and still make it drivable and not loose on performance. its gonna be tough since im used to 20x11 -5 being consider aggressive

i dont really like the extreme tire stretch, i know people w/ a 225 on a 10.5 inch rim and a 265 on a 11.5, thats just crazy to me

im gonna start w/ CSL wheels which are 19"x8.5" +40mm and 19"x9.5" +45mm and then trying an assortment of spacers till i find what i like, then once money is available get some 3 piece DPE and get nasty w/ it
