bad news for people who want to widen their wheels.

I hope you are going to paint the part that shows, black.

I'm glad you had good luck with them. Is that an oem wheel that was 8.5 and you went an extra 2"? How about a pic looking through the face of the wheel if you wouldn't mind?

8” wheel with 2” added. I’ll add pics after I get the wheels back from the paint shop.

I've thought of doing this too, just for the rears. What was the cost?

Great, thanks.

He charged me $235 + shipping per wheel. That price covered widening 1-3”.

At fordfred, just curious how much the paint shop cost? Did you change the color also?

I had a set of wheels for my Marauder widened by weldcraft a few months ago (as have many marauder owners).

They did have a 4 week backlog but they're (I believe) a smaller shop who are always busy.

They did a great job adding an extra 1.5" to my wheels. I also had them fix some curb damage and grind the welds down.

I would suggest using them if you're looking to have wheels widened.

Wheels refinished in PVD Chrome from Detroit Wheel

What size spacer and tire setup do you plan on running? I'm interested in doing this myself. Thx
