Where to get wheels widened?
So what Roy has 3 LT1's he doesn't know anything, but anyways I have yet to had help from anyone on this baord except CORY with my rear end swap. When did I call for help Mike? I mean not to sound rude or anything but I honestly don't think I did, & if I ever asked for anything I doubt I got any help from you, you helped Payam, I'm not Payam, I know Shaun R sometimes calls me Payam so I dunno.
Honestly I never had anyone do anything, & I mean anything on my car ever, reason being I wouldn't want help I preffer to do everything on my own car, but if I need a helping hand I'm sure I'll ask one day, I know I did a few times with some heavy lifting & noone was around so I said F*ck it. Again not to sound like a jerk or anything, & no seriously, I think I've helped the most on here, help ussually means FREE in my book, if you charge someone for work that isn't help anymore its called WORK, sorry.
The only person I should mention that ever helped me with anything, & quite a few things, plus the only person I ever consult with is Gerry (95Wagon) on this board.
But from now on, noone is getting any free work from me because its obviously not recogized on here.

Just too state a point Matt I gaurantee there are a few that have worked 10 folds more then you on these cars. Hell I have 4 LT1s in my garage at the moment and also who do you call when you need help
. Guess what the majority of my work comes from me fixing other peoples mistakes. Trust me I have seen my share of hack jobs and just so you know free work doesnt always mean it is good work.
Also lets try and get back on topic

Well for starters Matt if you cant recognize when you have called me then i aint going to waste my time pointing stuff out. Just for the record i was doing these things before you even had a car but that is besides the point. Also i did do stuff for free then i realized that my time and my tools didnt pay for themselves. Just like that snap on valve spring compressor you still have of mine. That little fella has been around it also costed me 200 dollars out of my pocket. Or lets see the 500 dollar cherry picker that went all over the lower mainland for a year. Those things arent cheap and they have to get paid for in one way or another. I still do a lot for free but the ones i help dont frequent here much anymore cause they have grown tired of some things that need not be explained any more.
Regardless if you want to argue more feel free to email me or call me o yes thats right you have my number. To bad i dont have yours

Now to get back on topic. I have priced wheel widening out before unless you are building a collector and want to keep oe looking wheels i would just buy new wheels. For a hac job i Have seen as low as 250 for widening for a good job i have seen upwars of 500 a wheel. IMOP not worht the money

the most important point is when you get a wheel widened you dont know how strong it is anymore, maybe it'd be fine in some lower hp applications but when laying down some power i wouldnt want my wheel distorting or coming apart at mach 2
OT. I am with Mike here. VERY few get me for free any more. I was busting my *** for everyone else and then one day realized is was dead broke and no one would help me work on MY car.
ON Topic.
That link KT gave out looks good to me. No One makes 10.5 2000 SS wheels and I need mine widened. Looks good to me. I do not plan on racing on them but my have them Cy=ryo'd to make me feel better
I would not tend to race on modifed wheels
