This idiot has a similar setup. Skip to the 9:00 mark to avoid all the stupid time wasting stuff.

Imagine how easy the tire bead can be pushed off the rim... I see no advantage to stretching a tire like that..

225 or 235 are more suited to a 9 inch wide rim..

Not to mention how challenging it would be to avoid curb rash, or even serious damage to the wheels.

RJ- Exactly, I like tires that have built-in rim guards in the rubber sidewall. To protect the rims..

I have no worry of curb rash as my rims I bought are just cheap ones off facebook and are already pretty ugly but thank you all for the advise and I will probably be going with 225/45R18's
