Widening OEM PP Wheels (19x11)

VertMustang98GT · Mar 31, 2016

I picked up four OEM PP Wheels from a member on here and I'm in the progress of getting them widened to 19x11's.

The shop that did the work is Wheel Medic in Columbus, OH:

What are they charging you? I went to their site but saw no pricing or option for wheel widening.

I purchased a set of factor 18" wheels to do just this. Also curious to see how they come out.

I have had this done to my 1977 grand prix wheels. Had them Widened 1 inch @ Stockton wheel and tire. If I remember it was around 300 for the pair and they were perfect. Took 1 month because they are always busy

They are oem... why would he need spacers?

Is 11" the widest we can go on the back? What about with spacers?

How do they widen a wheel? Interesting concept.

Not sure on spacers yet.

They start with four, hack away the edges of rear wheel (front of the wheel) and add about twice of what was taken off from the front wheel (front of the wheel).

If that makes sense.

So in essence you start with 19x9.5. Hack off 1.5 and add 3.0 from the front the wheel and weld it up.
