| Stretching tires and height of sidewall
Would stretching a tire reduce the factory sidewall height? For example would a 225/45 tires stretched on a 9.5" wheel pull the tires to something less than 45% of 225?

yes, I've got 18x10+25 on 225/40/18 and they fit my rear fenders well with a slight roll.
