Shop to make wheels wider

[mogaffar]

Hey guys,

I got into a car wreck this past labor day and my wheels were damaged in the accident. Heres a pic of the wheels PICS. (http://twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=general&msg_id=1961760)

What i was planning on doing was getting the wheels widened, currently they are at 18x8 and 18x9. Does anyone know of a shop that will widen the lip, someone told me bike shops such as chopper shops do this kind of work. Sadly i dont know of any so i was seeing if any of yall can help me.

Thanks Guys

Thanks GuysFor what it would cost to get a new outer aluminum ring i'd suggest just getting new wheels. Are they multi-piece? It may make it a little cheaper and easier if that's the case.

I have seen (read about & saw pics) of some O.Z. wheels taken back to the factory and widened for customers but that's in Europe.
