If I were you I wouldnt stretch a 215 on a rim that wide! Thats way too much why not stretch at least 235 and up!

the kids over at mazdafitment and wrong fitment crew consider that stretch normal

I know it would work but its just very hard on the tire it would look like this

This plus 235s stick you to the road a lot better . Put less stress on the tires, makes the car more stable, will look better IMO.

.. Or you could not stretch at all and keep the integrity of the tire at the level it's supposed to be. Do some research before you decide to stretch your tires, it's not as smart of an idea as people make it out to be.

Putting a 215 (8.46" width) on a 9.5" wheel isn't very extreme at all. I've seen 195s on a 10" before.

Besides the bead to bead distance (in this case) is 9". So, stretch wise, it won't really be much. There are tire brands that have a much easier time being stretched than others. Generally Michelin, Continental, General, Nexen all stretch well.
