Anyone had any experience with this and knows of a trustworthy machine shop who can do it that I can trust with my wheels? Currently I'm on a 4 x 130 on the fronts and chevy 5 on the rear....

Surely cost of machining 4 wheels would make it easier to sell yours and buy wide 5's?

On the front your probably right Lee, the rears are 8.5's with the correct offset for my laddered/narrowed rear end and were hard enough to find once

I have a machinist I use who is very good, manual and cnc. He is doing a couple of bits for me on the notch. I will ask him when I next see him if you like?
