Default Widening stock wheels

I`m looking for someone that can widen 2 of my stock ws6 wheels. I don`t want the barrels cut and 2 inches added to them. I want the centers cut off the stock barrel and welded to an aftermarket 11" barrel. I know it has been done before, but can`t find the person that did it. Anyone know of someone that would do this?

Was the center cut off the wheel and welded to an aftermarket barrel/hoop or was a 2 inch strip added to the stock barrel/hoop on those wheels? Looks like just a 2 inch strip added. That`s not what I`m looking for. I have seen one set on here that was done the way I want, but can`t find it

Thanks a bunch Blue. Looks like the guy that did them doesn`t want to do them anymore. Darn it!!! He`s not real far from me either. I wonder if there is someone else out there willing to do it?
