Since I do powder coating for a living I see what high gloss black wheels look like and they tend to outshine the rest of the vehicle. This is why I opted for a semi gloss black.
Number please to the shop that did this work. I been lookiing and looking for a place to do this.

Does anyone know where to get this done? It obvious that Joe is MIA. Anyone know a shop anywhere in the states that can widen wheels like this? Any direction would be great.
I have a 2000 WS6 and would like to keep the original look, but I always wanted a set of 315s.

Thanks

You can have any wheels widened to fit 315s, just not like Joe did. I have never seen anyone add to the outside of the wheel like that. If you just want say 17x11 WS6 wheels you can send yours out and they can add 2 inches to them. Heres the most popular site that most guys use, http://www.weldcraftwheels.com/

Yeah let him know so we can check out the wheels, speedlines in 11 would look sick as hell and it seems everyone on this thread is chompin at the bit to see what they look like. Bad *** wheels and a clean *** job by the way

Thats what I was going to ask, if they can widen the outside. The deep dish look is cool.
