They had an auction for one rear. I asked if they had more. I made an offer shipped for 4 and he made another auction for me with a buy it now of the agreed upon price. I'll send you a PM.

Yea I have been thinking about it but cant find place near NY..
I am going to suck it up and buy rims so I can put more of my tire down on the ground..

We need a list of all places that do this work. If someone were close I would just send mine in now. But I can not do without my car for over a week. This would save on buying more wheels.

Weldcraft Wheels and Eric Vaughn seem to be the two most reputable. Definitely not something I would want just anyone to do. Once I get mine back and put some tires on, you could borrow my fronts to keep you mobile. It would be a bit of a drive for you. I go to Bowling Green often, so I could meet you there.

Cool deal. What 315 tire are most running? By the end of summer I want to have this all done. I hope.

I just thought about this. I will probably have the tires taken off so I can use the sensors.

Any updates? Did you get them, and if so how did they look?

Waiting to receive the widened wheels even as I type. The store manager, Ramiro Cantu, was kind enough to bring them down to Austin and save me a trip back up to Dallas. He said he had to come this way, anyway, but I think he's going "above and beyond" in the customer service department by personally delivering the wheels to me.

Pics should be up this evening. Stand by.

Hi Kevin, I was getting ready to send a spare set of fronts out to be widened but now I'm waiting to see how yours work out, maybe I should send rears instead, we'll see how yours workout, let us all know how they fit.

Hi, George. I should have pictures of the wheels tonight, but I might not be able to mount the tires until tomorrow morning.

Also, at the risk of hijacking my own thread, could you give me a price to upgrade to one of your pistol-grip shifters. I'm looking to do one in red and black. You can PM me if you prefer.

So as not to clutter up this thread I will PM you, I'm late for an appointment so most likely tomorrow.
