guys, i ran that question already on roadglue a while ago,
i'm looking for a shop to widen my 7x15 alloy "cookie cutter" wheels to 8x15 and 9x15. a local (greater bay area) shop is preffered (no shipping) but if you have any out of state recommendation, bring em on. anybody here ever had alloy wheels widened? how is the quality? are they strong enough for club racing/auto-x? what i have so far: Stockton Wheel http://www.stocktonwheel.com/ does STEEL only (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Kelley's Custom Wheel Service 1725 N. Report Ave Stockton, Ca 95205 209.547.9246 209.547.9245 - Fax they quoted $110 per wheel. not bad! do they have a web-site ??? your feedback is very welcome ... Andy |

QUOTE(boxstr @ Apr 3 2003, 11:32 PM) I talked to the guy from Weidmans Wheels at the Ventura German Autofest last year and they widen the Fuchs. Beautiful looking wheels. No idea on price. They are located in Oroville, Calif. 530-534-7903. The Lindsey racing wheels if you supply the core, is a very good price. If you have been shopping and seen the prices you will know what I mean. CCLinLOO LLC, I've been in their shop and have seen both the widened wheels and just regular customer's wheels - I can't describe enough how good the effort and workmanship is. Looks like jewelry. I'm saving my pennies to get my street set polished. Here's just the opposite of what they do. I did my AX set myself. They look real bitchin' 10-15 feet away. I will never strip another set of wheels - ever. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |
