Try http://www.ws6.com , this guy widened his 17"x9" stock rims to 17"x11" I think. Look at his website and maybe you can e-mail him for further information.

There is a place we used to widen rims. They cut off the inside of the rim (just past the bead), and weld on a wider inside section. IIRC, they charged around $200/wheel. Do a 'net search for BJ Hansen. It is his blown '95 Firebird that had the rims widened. I hope this helps!
