Place to widen wheels

[FuelSlut]

OK so I can't find 10.5 in 03-04 chrome cobra wheels anywhere. Lethal is on backorder. My last resort is to widen my oem. Where is a good place around here?

How much? And what's the best width to go with? I'll be running 315 tires.

www.50resto.com should have some, or like posted above, www.americanmuscle.com

$160 for both? Thats not bad. Whats the down time, and Who quoted you this?

I saw 50 resto has 10.5's but in deep dish, i dont think I like that look with this style wheel.

keep in mind, you'll probably have to run a good sized spacer on widened wheels.

 

[Slow99x]

True. The stock wheels are only 9s and have a certain backspace. The 10.5s may have a different backspace to clear the inside. When you run a spacer, depending on the size, you need to get longer studs so that the lugnuts have enough thread to hold the wheels on properly.

Oredered these, thanks for the info. These were $40 cheaper than Leathal.

Will those fit though? Whats the backspacing? I just put deep dish rims on my car and they barley fit.

Nevermind...just saw the specs on the website.

No matter what if you run 10.5 in wheel in back you will need a 3/8 spacer and new lug nuts. I ordered the MM IRS bolt just to be safe.

Depends on the wheel/tire combo. I get away with the replica 10.5 from american muscle with 315 nitto 555 drags with no spacer or needing to replace the IRS bolts
