is there anyway to have ws6 wheels made 11" wide i wanna get rims in the future and i want 315's in the back. i know the 9" ws6 wheels are not wide enough to support the tires but is there any way the stock ws6 wheels could be modified to be wider or anything honestly i think the ws6 wheels are the best lookin wheels areound beside TTII's but i want the 315's in the back for sure. so tell me what do i do.

$200 a rim is the usual price. You'll have to run roughly a 2" spacer because they will only widen the rim on the inside, not on the outside lip. Try www.fixrim.com

i think its bad to run slip on spacers, i dont think its quite as bad to run spacers that have their own studs/lugs/lip etc. i've ran a few 1inch spacers like that and have never had any kind of problems.

Yea, the bolt-on adapters are ok. I wouldn't run a very thick slip-on spacer though. I used 2" spacers on my '03 dually and they worked fine, and it was 8,000+ pounds.

I had my WS6 rims widened to 11" and i only had to run a 1/2" wheel spacer ,But i had to remove the bump stop and do some miner work to inter finder and had to get longer wheel studs (ARP) and a adjustable pan hard bar and my car is lowered 2" and run Nitto's with no rubbing at all, in dips or curves ,And poly bushing in the rear suspension

do they fill up the wheel wll like when people run aftermarket 11" or are they set in more. i like the way the TTII's end right at the edge of the fender filling it pefect. i looked at your album and theres really only 1 pic that shows it sorta ok if u got some pics plz show me

I would think for the price of widening the wheels you could purchase some replicas for about the same.(although I don't think they make WS6 replicas wheels)
