I'm pretty much set on stretching 33x12.50 mud grapplers onto 20x14 fuel mavericks. What can and can't i do ? What are some things I should watch out for ? Thanks !

But go ahead and try it you won't be able to run any lower tire pressure. Nobody will recommend doing it though.

^^ +1, but if you insist, keep the pressures HIGH, too hard of a turn and the bead will roll and pop and leave you sitting duck on the side of the road with your nice wheels damaged. My biggest issue with stretch, no matter the platform (ricer, sports car, truck, suv, anything) is you just spent usually good money, on a nice set of wheels, which are usually not easily repairable or cheaply, just to get smaller tires for $50-100/per cheaper and ruin the wheels costing $150 to repair or more to replace. Rocks hit the edge of the wheel now because its exposed to the road elements, crud gets in the bead area and causes bead leaks and corrosion and you just look like a cheap SOB rolling down the road with the wrong size tires on the wrong size wheels. Just my 2 cents ;)

I don't like stretched tires but a straight/flat sidewall looks good on some truck and wheels setups. Basically just mount the tire on the widest approved wheel for the tire is what I'm trying to say.

You've never been to Va Beach lol Almost every truck there runs 12 or 14 wides. Some look good some don't.

I've seen enough idiots in cars around here with stretched tires fly past me on the highway. 2 miles later I pass them because they've got a flat. PA roads sucks for any of that stuff. Then just kinda honk, wave, laugh, and roll a little coal.
