Where did you get the work done?

Yes, they are 3" wider now, 10" total! :D

I had it done by www.falgrikt.se a Swedish company!

Intresting...my question is besides how much it cost USD....is, although it doesn't matter when the tire is mounted, but is it still a safe wheel to roll on for the street?

I'm just thinking, that's a mighty big lip, it kinda throws off where the stress is usually distributed....since it's so deep, it looks like it might actually break if impacted hard....

Looks nice, a little too deep for my taste, but sick as hell none the less...

The cost is 2500 sek per wheel(for 3" wider).. thats about $335 (1 kr = 7.52 $ )

The wheel is welded with TIGed from both sides on both seams and should be just as strong as before! It moves the ET from about ET 35 to ET -41 ..

I wanted the fatliplook for my buggy at the rear :cool:
