jaros44, Willamette Wheel went out of business a few years back. The only place that I know that still does that kind of work is Stockton Wheel in California. I got a quote for them to make my rally wheels into 16x10's. They wanted $225 a piece to do it. I am sure that just widening would be less though.

Here is their widening link.

Yep, 3 minutes apart. I thought of stocton too, but they want 100 a wheel. Should be someone out there for less, guess I'll keep lookin'

Thanks for the replys, guys. I'm trying to get rid of the offset front to rear and I don't want to use spacers. Maybe I'll just put the full 1 1/2"s on the rear and save some money. Eventually I'll put another rear in it, to get the rite width.... J.

Hey a $100.00 a wheel is not a bad price.

You could also try Weldcraft Wheels (Plymouth, Michigan) - http://weldcraftwheels.com/index.html

They do great work - I haven't had any wheels done, but I do know several people who have and their craftsmanship was flawless...

Some people widen the stock 94-96 Impala SS rear rims to 10" so they can put a 315/35/17 tire on...

The last time I checked they wanted $175 per wheel to widen the 17" stock SS rims - so $100 a piece to widen a wheel (correctly) - is a good deal (IMHO).

OK, thanks guys. Maybe it's not such a bad price, just would rather put the money on a more important issue...
