    I know of no one who will band a wheel any more, liability.
    cheaper to get a 10" and put the center in it yourself.

    I just bought some rims from a guy named Rick in Powell. I think he did this. His number is 865-228-2024. Worth a shot to check with him.

    It's not E Tn but I had my back wheels on my model a widened by Wheel Works in Burlington NJ. Tim Smith has been building/repairing wheels for years. The brown truck picks up and drops off.

  8. You're in the heart of Roundy-Round country!

    Find a local circle-jerk racer that does them. Almost everywhere there's a dirt or asphalt track, there's a guy or shop that builds them. They'll use a center from a stock wheel, jig it up and weld it into a new hoop.

    Here's the one's I had made for my slicks..............
