widening stock sport wheels

GETU1 · 10-20-2009, 01:10 AM

Well, I checked around a few tire/rim places and one place advised me NOT to try to widen the stock Rays. He said if they were a 3 piece rim, then it would be pretty easy to do. Since the OEM Rays are a solid 1 piece, then it would be very complicated to do and would weaken the structural integrity of the wheel. He did offer to have custom made rims for me though @ $1200 per rim. NOT INCLUDING TIRES!! OUCH!! He said a Porsche is having a custom set made @ $6200. Must be nice to have money to burn like that? Imagine this though, a custom set of 20 x 10 (front) and 20 x 12 (rear) Rays (sport package model) in gun metal finish. How sweet would that be???
