thanx

its scion XB on tan colored widened steelies

 

How do you widen a steelie?

 

Weld them.

 

Why not just buy steelies that are already wide off of a different car?

Cutting the end off of a wheel, and welding metal between them sounds a little iffy..

 

i remember seeing that car, it was really nice.

 

Iffy? Your car is welded. Your building is welded. The bridge you drive across is welded (in part).

The only issue I can see is possibly getting a bad imbalance in the wheel, but again, a quality job will leave a fairly uniform weld that should balance just fine.

 

this car was the SEX.. like hopefully someone finds the pic.. i had it saved on old laptop but i didnt transfer all my pics when i got my new mac... ugh... it was amazizng..

 

people have been widening steelies for years, most likely before i was even born . there is nothing iffy about them if you do it correctly, much like everything else in life.

 

Found this thread on Scion site. I'm not going through 16 pages to look for pics though, sorry.
