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..

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.

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.
