How do you widen a wheel?

 

i have seen it done on some site but how they do it i have no clue.

 

there is a place that does it i know of but they are not local .... try calling wheel repair shops like glen's polishing and repair , they will help you find someone if there is anyone local .

 

ive found some places but they arent local. the largest wheel they can do is 17" and minimal widening. but a 16" wheel can go as wide as 10" i think. 15" can go up to 12" wide.

do a search for Stockton wheel widening on google

 

i have some 14's i want at least 8 in wide

 

youre gonna have to go up to a 15" to get it that wide... but its like $250 per wheel.

That would be hot. I think people are starting to figure out that a 17x6 wheel is worthless, but a 15x8 rocks.

 

Steel wheels are far easier to widen . Why not just get some SSR mesh or an old school wheel ? What bolt pattern do you need .

Alot of wheels for older corolla's and the like are 14X8 ..or 14X9 or 15X12 because of the huge flares they put on them for the N2 race series .
