i dont do it but i can have it done.

hmm....Do you know what the maximum length that can be added to an alloy wheel? Also what would be a rough estimate to modify two wheels? I'd love to have two of my stock TII wheels widened to keep the ultimate sleeper look instead of looking for another pricey set of wider wheels.

ley me know the size your wheels are, what size you want to go, and do you want the inside tub bigger or a fatter lip?. that depends on what is done to the wheel.

rotorhead87 · 11-20-2008, 01:16 PM

Currently they're 16x7 with a +40 offset. I'd like for them to be 16x9 by increasing the size of the inside tub. That's about it. Nothing crazy.

I'll probably use spacers to push out the wheel from the extra width and to make the wheel flush to the body.

are you wanting to get all four done or just two. im trying to figure shipping. but it will take about 3 weeks shipped once i receive it, then back to you.

rotorhead87 · 11-20-2008, 06:09 PM

I just need two of the wheels widened. If you could, after your situated with the shipping and etc, possibly give me a price. Hopefully it does cost as much as a new set of wheels.

jtbshaw · 11-20-2008, 11:40 PM

Todd is a good guy. We do all of his welding if the rim is cracked or broken. He operates in house, but he is a completely seperate company. I will have him post some pics of my son's wheels when he finishes them (some old skool 3pc).

And DJ, when am I gonna get some love???? Hit me up with some rep, mang.

I would love to widen the 4 lug spare wheel, its got a classic look to it. Money for that is just not in the cards.
