    Where can i get corrado steelies widened?

    I have a buddy with 15" corrado steelies and he might be getting rid of them. Does anybody know of a company in the washington d.c area that would widen the wheels. Im guessing if i added about 1.5" to the lip the would sit about right on an e30. I know the stellie thing has been beaten to death but i do appreciate oppinions.

    i don't know if they are going to work out on the e30, from what i have heard vw's are lugcentric and not hubcentric i think that applies to there steelies as well, i don't know how tight they will fit over the hub and if they will stay centred, best bet is to try them first before widening.

      4 x 100 VW wheels share their center bores with 4 x 100 BMWs: 57.1mm

      Both are hubcentric
      Brake harder. Go faster. No shit.

        They will fit fine. Check Vortex for someone to widen them. I think when all said and done its going to cost you about 500...

                Let me know if you do not decide to run the steelies. I really want to do the corrado brake upgrade (front) but want a 2nd set of wheels for winter. 14's would be out of the question b/c of the 'rado brakes. Def check out vortex for more widening info. Look up Nothingleavesstock guys name is Josh. I've been good friends w/ him for years, he has a vw shop near Allentown Pa (all sorts of custom stuff) and could probably direct you to a trustworthy person near you. Good luck w/ your decision....euroweaves ftw
