Thanks! There's a few threads on here about widening them but I got mine done by http://www.ericvaughnmachine.com/ . Let me know if you have any more questions!

Is this the widdest tire/wheel size you could go? Also, would it be possible to see some before/ after pics? I'm seriously considering doing this and would like to see what it looks like. I want to keep as much as I can under the car and not outside the fenders.

Two words - AWE SOME! Well, one really. Looks great Starski!!!

Thanks you guys. I believe 10.8 is the widest you are supposed to be able to go. Some people do 10.5. And I definitely didn't want to go any wider than a 315 on that size wheel. Anyone that's done this know what a good size spacer is for the front. I still feel like the wheels are tucked more than the rear in the front.

Also I have a set of original SS wheels with P-Zero tires with about 8500 miles on them if anyone is interested. One has a bit of curb rash but other than that in pretty good shape. Only thing missing is the tire pressure monitors.

Car looks great! How wide are the back rims now? 10.5?

STARSKI · 05-23-2012, 03:20 AM

Do you mind sharing what you paid?

STARSKI · 05-23-2012, 04:13 PM

It was around 600 for the widening, somewhere between 300-400 for the powder coating. Tires were 1500 mounted and balanced etc. And I think around 120 for the spacers or so. Some of the stuff I ordered so long ago so it's hard to remember exact figures, but that's an estimate. Oh and I bought a 2nd set a wheels off craigslist. that's why I still have my stocks with the tires on them if anyone is interested PM me.
