Anyone ever get wheels widened?

[Jafxod]

My car came with a set of e46 16" steelies. Im looking to get them widened an inch to bring it to 16x8. Anyone ever get a quote for something like this?

For the price of widening steelies, you'd be better off calling diamond racing wheels

It's around $300 for 4 wheels around here

From what I heard Diamond racing wheels are crappy quality, and they're also lug-centric...bmws are hub-centric.

Everyone and their mom runs them these days, including me. I sold mine to my friend a while ago when I went 5 lug.

Thank you very much, DR steelies retail for around 125 each, so this is definetly cheaper.

They are solid wheels, but yes, lug centric is a bitch, especially without studs.

Wait...holy noob question, but what's lug-centric and hub-centric?

If they wheel is centered on the hub via having the same size hub diamter, or by if the lugs are the the only thing that keep it centered
