Default Big Steel Wheels
Has anyone ever seen a plain steel wheel in a 17x11 or 12? I can't find one anywhere. Also, does anyone have any expereince in having steel wheels widened?
Thanks,
Carson

Good luck Carson... if you find anyone, let me know as well.

We use an 18" fitment in Land Speed Racing and it has almost been the death of me to find a competent builder that can/will do custom steel wheels in larger diameters than 16".

There are a bunch of cats that can widen steel wheels... of the 15 and 16" variety of course... but dont know of very many that do anything larger.

Wheel Vintiques has 17X8 Rally Wheels that you could have widened.

I've found the Cragar soft 8's in a 17x9. But I know nothing about wheel widening.
