Default Re: Factory looking wheels only wider?

Ditto on Stockton wheels. I am having them make my 14x7 Camaro rallys into 15x8's for the front,and 15x10's on the back. They dont use a filler strip to widen the wheel. The have "hoops" in various sizes,and just cut the center out of your wheel,and install it into their new hoops. They do it on a fixture,so while they are at it,it straightens out the wheel. Even if the center is slightly bent,the center is bolted onto the fixture,and welded into the hoop,so aside from the center sitting a bit crooked,even a bent center would roll true. In the case of my 14" wheels,they can use a filler hoop that takes any space between the smaller center and the larger hoop.
