Keep in mind Fellas that a Nitto 315/35 is a small tire and tends to LOOK better on 17x10....... but if you go the BFG route you can get a wider tire and it will match the 17x11 better. BUT IMO the Nitto is a better tire... With that being said.
I'de buy a set of chrome 17x10's or 17x10.5's

The wheel shop in Dallas was Wheels America. They fixed a rim for my 98 T/A back in 99. They do excellent work if you have a cracked or damaged wheel for like $100 and have it done the next day. BUT, someone emailed me back and was a total A$$hole in the way that he told me that they didn't widen rims. However, Stockton Wheel in Stockton,Ca. does widen stock rims, up to a 17x8 in size. Might be worth checking into.

Correction on previous post: Stockton Wheel will NOT widen aluminim rims, only stock steel rims. I am sure they will do an excellent job, their posted photos looked just great. But just about any machine shop can do the job on steel wheels. I had it done in 1982 on a stock pair of Pontiac Rally II's for the back of a project I was working on. A local shop did the work for $50 per rim, widening 15x8's to a 15x10's. And the factory trim rings covered the "scars" of the widening, so that I didn't have to run a back spacer and I had a large outside lip.
