Widening wheels....

[mustang70]

Is it possible to widen cast wheels? I want to go to 9" or wider wheel, but I like my stock ones and would like to keep them.

Yes you can widen rims.

I've seen Bullitt and FR500 wheels widen to 10.5 that were owned by customers of Chicane Sport Tuning.



One of the Wheels America location does the service (I think the Fla. location). I'm sure there are some other places that offer the service

Viking Wheel Service can also widen. http://www.vikingwheel.com/index.html

I think Stockton Wheel Serivce widens wheels but don't know if they do larger size wheels or cast wheels. http://www.stocktonwheel.com/

The Wheel Shoppe in Detroit widens also...and I think these guys are Mustang guys too!! http://www.internetalternatives.com/wshoppe/wwiden.htm

Yes, Hoppy is right ! My friend had a set of stock 96'ish cobra's widened from somewhere here in florida. Kind of pricey though !

I am looking into getting my stock Saleen rims widened (the back) and then all 4 chromed. Like this:

I will probably be going though that Wheel America place.
