IMO it looks like wheel was bent by the pothole but the scratching on the rim looks like curb rash. I don't think that curb rash was done from just hitting that one pot hole. The pot hole probably contributed to the rash and made it worst.
^This I agree. No matter what size tire and wheel you have a pot hole could ruin it.
I like the look of it, But I would not drive the car that way. If I had a car show and i towed the car everywhere to enter it into car shows, then I think thats fine. To put yourself on the road IMO with tires streched like that or worst seems very dangerous IMHO. But hey what do I know. I never did the research on streched tires.
John If I read your response correctly then I have to disagree. I have been driving on the road a little over 10 years.Not always are you going to avoid a pothole or a whatever you encounter on the road. Sometimes it can creep up on you reguardless if you are paying attention. I have hit several potholes and it wasn't because I was not paying attention. Driving at night time, Driving during a bad drizzle especially the ones that distort your vision, Also after it had rained at night time sometimes the on coming vehicles lights could cause the road not to be as visible. Everytime I seen a pothole that I wasn't able to avoid I try to slow down as much as possible so I could cause as less damage as possible.

his rim is bent because he hit a fucking pothole. you're dumb as fuck. stick to sucking gm dick. stretching tires just reduces sidewall flex and enables you to go lower. you know nothing about stance, nothing about anything really because your car is a fucking riced out sunken battleship fag boy pussy footed atezza tailed pos. i wouldnt expect you to know anything about stance or style though...your grand prix has a fucking vader bodykit from one of those superstreet ads that say bodykits...499! omgsuckadick. goodnite
I hate when fucking gay ass pirates like this douche bag come into my thread trashing me and my car claiming I don't know anything...
and they can't even get the name of the fucking car right!!!
Eat shit and die loser. Getting some fucking education!

OP - "your friend" can't drive 
Seriously, how hard is it to NOT hit the curb? Thats not even a stretch, I've ran stretched and never hit a curb. You are blaming a non existent condition on your friends inability to judge distance, and ability to pay attention to road hazards

I disagree. You can turbo a single cam honda with a built motor and make 500 horsepower, or you can buy a Bentley Brooklands. Guess how many people would pick the Honda assuming similar performance? None. Thats how many. That's why I just spent several thousands of dollars on a car with wood trim and leather interior instead of putting a hayabusa motor into the back of a geo. Because at the end of the day an 11 second Geo is still a fucking Geo, and my heated seats will keep my ass nice and toasty. Theres a lot more to speed than speed itself.

First off, Centerlines are where it's at - so you're wrong. Second off, no one likes Bullitts... You need a special lug wrench! Third off, who the fuck needs a 295? Outlaw guys run a 10.5 tire, that's all anybody should need! All in all, you fail to make any good points. BUT! Thanks for calling my 'merican muscle car badass. I appreciate it!
