Can anyone recommend a wheel widening or narrowing shop around SGV? My old man needs to have his 15x10 rims narrowed down to a 15x8. I want to take the wheels to a shop that knows what their doing. Any recommendations?

Yeah i heard of them but i was hoping to get this done somewhere local. I really dont want to eat the shipping price both ways and i cant have the car on jackstands for weeks.

When I was looking to have my 93 cobra replicas widened, a few guys recommended EVM to me, never called them though... Because after speaking with James at weldcraft about having the 93 cobras widened 1.5" , with the shipping I was looking at almost $600 for just 2 wheels.

How much are you adding and whats the turn around time? $50 cheaper than what Weldcraft was charging me to add 1.5"....

Does anyone know if widening rims is safe? I know it's not much of a difference but I have 17X9 stock style bullitts and it is a bit too thin for me and the next up is 10.5 which I don't really want. I kinda want 9.5's or maybe 10 and if I run Nitto 315's it will look perfect on it since the Nittos run narrower

I'm not adding I'm taking off 2 inches. His turn around time is 1-2 weeks.
