That is really going to depend on what bolt pattern you have. If its a 5 on 4 1/2", you can get 15 x 7 from 80s 5th Ave or from squad cars. 15 x 8 will be a lot harder, maybe some old Ramchargers.
Any other bolt pattern will present a problem if you want factory style wheels with dog dish caps. The choices with 8" wide wheels were usually mags. Gene

yeah, regular 5x4.5, so i believe they work. if i could figure out who still cuts and widens wheels, it would be a lot easier, to just grab 4 cop wheels, and widen a pair.

15x8 seem to be super coupes, but they dont have the dog dish nubs on them, from what i'm seeing.

That's great news. I had them widen several wheels years back for a dirt car I ran. When I got them back, they were more true than stock!

Dakota guys have used a shop in Michigan to widen stock 17x9s for 315 wide slicks. I think the name was weld craft

They seem to do good, quality work, around $200 a pair?

Yes aluminum. I would imagine steel wheels would be no different.

i'm in touch with a guy now, thanks for the replies, and stuff. stockton used to be great for widening, but they stopped for a while, and now, new owners? dunno. the banned guy, isnt anything i want, especially since he was banned for burning a member.
