Just take them down to Sears Auto. They have a wheel and rim stretcher. I had my stock 17’s turned into 18’s in about an hour. They may have to add a lot of wheel weights to get the balance, but you don’t see them anyway.

<hr></blockquote> That's just great. Now you're gonna have a few idiots down at Sears, asking if they can get their wheels "stretched"...

That does look fantastic, doesn't it! Actually, those look with 21's or something. 20's aren't quite that big in the wheel wells. Still, it's nice to imagine...

I heard also if you can get the speed governor taken off, then take your car past 160mph...they rims will expand on their own from spinning that fast.

I went down to my local Pep Boys and they said they could stretch the wheels but not the tires. I would have to buy all new rubber. But they said they would stretch the wheels for free if i bought the rubber. I thought that was a deal..then they said they wanted $1300 for rubber. I left.

OMG...Are you kidding me? Your Joking right??

I wonder if people really tried to check on this. It's metal people. LoL
