widening alum.wheels

[Dwayne]

I have a set of Centerline Billet GN (style 89) wheels. The rears are 8 inches wide and I would like them to be widened to 9 inches with a 5" backspace. The rims now have a 4" backspace. I would buy another set of rims but Centerline says they will not make any more of that style. So my question is, Does anybody know of a company that can widen my wheels or does anybody here work for Centerline or have any "pull" with them? Thanks for any and all info.....Dwayne

Stockton only wants to do steel wheels......

Check your area for a tool and die company. Some of them have the ability to cut the rim and add an insert.

good idea...thanks

Do a search on here for

Trudesign wheels

that exact spelling, they widen for good prices, they do steel or aluminum. They do a lot of Turbo Regal and Corvette wheels...
