    JDMST.com End of Month Meet

    Hey guys,

    IB4R drove up and stayed with my girlfriend and I over the weekend to come out with me to an end of month meet up for another forum loved by us on the east coast of Australia.

    These EOMM meets are held across three states, Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria. The sizes of these meets grows every month and some months see in excess of 450 cars.

    Some of Australia's best imports turn up to these events, and though this months meet was smaller than usual a large number of cars still made the event.

    Any shots of full cars?

    You either end up taking photos of the wheels or the engine covers.

    Looks like a nice gathering though.

    There was an Italian car meet on my campus last month, I'll post it up when I get the chance.

    Its actually fairly safe, considering the amount of shenanigans that drifters get upto on stretched tyres.

    There are a few cases of the tyre coming off the bead, however from what I know these are few and far between.

    It started out near as I can tell as a cost effective way of getting stiffer sidewalls from cheap tyres, and has progressed into the usual one-upmanship (in terms of skinny tyre on widest rim)

    Do you have any pics of insane stretch?
    (it's a fascination of mine. I could never do it ot my own car but its really interesting to see what others have done)

    Nope, started as a way to get wide wheels to fit under standard fenders without the tyre sticking out (which usually won't pass rego).
