Widened steel rims? Someone doing it right? Someone just making them for sale? (No core needed.) Kenny was nice enough to give me a set of dog dish caps and it's got me thinking wider steels rather then Basset's DOT rim's I'd been considering.  :scratchchin:

Of course one issue is that they are on the opposite side of the country from you. But it gives you a starting point.

Give these guys a call and see if they have the centers your looking for.  They made my rims for me.  You just have to know how wide, what offset, and bolt pattern.  They have stuff not on their web page.  http://www.mrt-wheels.com/

I was interested as well since I want to run a 15x10 on the front and back of my Daytona, and I really like the standard stock wheel as most of the Nascar versions Daytonas looked like a widened stock wheel.
Sold my Charger unfortunately....never got it finished.

Yes, open for business. After the tragic death of the owner, they are open. I understand that the family sold to an employee group and they are maintaining their tradition for fine custom work.

It was March, 2011, sadly a suicide. Frank Mauro was well regarded in the Stockton and Northern California community. RIP.
