Im looking for a shop that will be willing to rebarrel a two piece welded rim. Its a 19 inch Work wheel and I had a shop in socal do my Eurolines a few years back but I cant find his name anymore.

Does anyone have any leads on a shop or person that would be willing to do this? Work wheels usa wont do it.

Cliffnotes:

Work 2 peice weld rim
remove disc(face) from barrel
get wider barrel
weld disc in new barrel
:ssex:

Bump

Same question as OP. But using the same face and barrel just lowering the offset.

Where can you find the outer barrell for this?
Wanting to do the same to my SSR SP1's instead of cutting and widening!

Google Titanium Touch. They do outer barrels for 3 piece wheels. They're based in Germany, so a bit closer to home than the US guys.

Memory fab can also do what you're looking for.

is that a reflection or is the area they widened reflecting differently than the polished rim. You can see a strip about 1" wide on both wheels, right on the lip

Looks like reflection. Those wheels weren't widened. The offset was just lowered. The face was cut out, and pushed into the barrel more, therefore lowering the offset and making a bigger lip.

Quail, thanks man!
Mine are 2 piece but it shouldn't be to much work welding on a new outer barrel :) And the price looks right so I'm buying soon! :)
