Default Widening Stock Wheels

Does anyone know of a place that can widen a pair of my stock chromed Trans Am wheels to 11"? I know there is a company that makes an 11" wheel for the ZR1 style Camaro ones but I can't find anything for the Firebirds so I am looking to get a set I have widened.

If the company isn't a sponsor just PM me the info.

Also does anyone know the offset on the 11" ZR1 wheels? I will need to know this if I have mine modified the same.

Thanks,
Brett

I just had Weldcraft widen a pair of OEM 18" GTO wheels for me and they did an awesome job. $175 per wheel plus $25 to grind down the weld beads. Guys were real good to deal with (even after UPS scrapped one of my brand new wheels during shipping) and quality of work looks excellent. I would highly recommend them if you want some wheels widened.

Oh, also, remember that widening can only be done to the inner edge so you'll need to run a spacer/adapter...
