Widening wheels by cutting & welding the rim is illegal now in NSW. 
Yeah I used to do it for Parramatta Speed Shop but sorry, you're 30 years too late!!

I've got a set of 10 x 7 chromed Cooper S wheels. They were made in the early '70s using spun halves by Bernie Pfitzner Engineering. Quite a few Minis in Adelaide ran them. Only one weld, not a steel band welded in either side. |

It's something that has really gone out of fashon. widening steel rims. because of alloys. you will have better luck finding second handies. Just keep in mind it'll be nearly impossible to find 10x7 tyres nowerdays. there's not much demand for them. they do look awesome on though. |

i'm guessing there aren't many cars that came with 10x5 / 10x6 inch steel wheels? |

I'm a fan but I dont think it would suit a clubby. anyone know if its legal in vic? or if its engineered is it legal? I'd like them on my roundy van when I find the cash for the guy |
