    Oh, and another thing to note about Stockton wheel. They aren't selling you widened steelies, they are selling you wheels that are already the width you are asing for, they just weld in the face of the wheel where you want it. That means the barrels are one piece, not barrels that have been cut apart and have had material added to the centers.

    Buying wider wheels is better than widening old ones.

    I get that but looking at it first post leads me to believe he wants to widen a set he has.
