Widening IX weaves

[Need4Speed1299]

Ive noticed you can buy replacement lips for bbs rims that are 2 or 3 piece. Would if be possible to bolt these onto my weaves with the proper modification of the lip and drilling holes on a drill press? Has anyone done this?

[lennon]

no

Wow. I didn't think this would ever be asked by a person on a car forum. . . .

With enough money anything can be done. But the cheaper option is to buy 3 piece wheels.

Fuck it, I will talk to a machinist rather than someone on a forum with a bunch of posts named Philo.

Since I have the wheels, how would it not be cheaper?

[Jparkr]

Have fun with that.

Let us know if they just laugh at you or ask you to wait in the office while they call the police...

fuck the h8rs. you can widen steelies why not aluminum? metal is metal just grind down the current lip and drill and bolt on the new one. jb weld works too

Pvc pipe.

Uhh. . . . What's wrong with my name, Need4Speed1299? Not original enough for you?

I don't feel like legitimately answering or discussing this question with you. Maybe if you grow up, educate yourself, or use some common sense you'll figure it out. Or you can just talk to the machinist. I'm sure he'll use his college degree to custom build some wheels for you on the cheap.

Pvc pipe.

let us know how much the machinist laughs.

If you can get this done, find out if you can turn your sealed beams into elipsoids.

Just buy some honda wheels. You have tons of high offset wheels with a lip available to you already for a cheaper price then getting your wheels modified. Its going to cost you at least 400 for a set of lips+ another 400 to get them modified. Just spend the $400 on a set of spun supamesh and call it a day.

Some of you guys are outrageous. Obviously wheels can be widened, steel or aluminum. All I was asking is if I could make my 1 piece wheels into 2 piece, which IS possible. However, I don't know if it would be possible with my style rim.

You didnt answer my question, bashed me, and ended up with +1 post.

I dont care what your name is. If you dont want to legitimately answer or discuss my question, then grow up, educate yourself, use some common sense, and get the hell out of my thread.

...time to chill out and stop taking the interwebs so SrZ. Ya Meen?
