wheels

does anyone know if any manufacturer is making or working on these rims in 17 x 11"?

I want some bigger meats, but i don't really like the SS 5-spoke. If someone would make these wheels in 17 x 11" I would be the first one to buy them (chrome of course).

I don't think anyone has made those in 17x11 yet but you could send the ones you have here http://www.fixrim.com/ and have them widened probably

I think the best you can do with those is 17X 9.5s

that website doesn't say anything about widening a rim, and I wouldn't drive on it anyway. I'm not convinced it would be structurally sound.


Any rim can be manufactured to 17x11. The ZR1 was, why not this one? Or am I like the only person who likes these rims?

You're not the only person that likes these rims - they are very nice.

chuckys95 had his I-Forged wheels widened to his liking. When they widen them they don't mess up the structural integrity - I would guess that they help it if anything. That is just about going to be your only bet.
