Sorry...why do you want to do this?

Edit: Nevermind. I should probably stop asking questions if I dread knowing the answers.

Google it... You may have to send em off... I just hope they aren't classic wheels b/c you may get back reproductions...

Edit: If it were me I'd engrave my birthdate or somethin else in the back of the wheel...

There aren't any places that do it in Virginia that I know of.
The nearest place that I know of that has a good rep is Lewis Welding, they're in Pa though.

I'm not so sure but this may be somethin you might be able to do yourself... Somehow sepereate the wheel face from the rim and weld it into a new rim... I'm sure its a good bit more technical than that... Do some research, get some crap rims, give it a try... *shrug* I atempted to make my own 3" white walls once... It don't hurt to try...

jumping out of a plane without a goddamn chute would be more safe then trying to widen your own wheels to look "dope" with no idea what you are doing

i can see the next thread on here "whyd my dope azs wheelz kill a scholbus??!?!?!?1"
