widening 16" rims

Well I did it! Finished putting a 2 inch band of steel in my rim. Took the rim and a 225/75/16 good year wrangler to the tire shop and they put it on from the back side. Wow, looks amazing. It holds air. Three more to go. As soon as i find the camera i will post pics. Any input would be great.

What book? Rules are meant to be broken.

 

That's cool, I did something similar once to put tractor tires on my O/T Bronco for the local mud boggs. Canadian Tire, Kal Tire and OK Tire all refused to mount them, so I did it myself. The truck wasn't even legal for the road, so I didn't really care. What part of Ontario are you from? I am up in Sudbury.

 

i am on an island near kingston.

 

kurtis, do many people speak when they see your wheels. or do they stand there with their mouth open speachless. me i just said wow!
