Title: Technical Question - narrowing alloys Post by: rebel on August 03, 2007, 16:13:10 pm Well,
I know it's a hard-core type of 'customizin' but I wander if it's possible nowadays. I've seen a narrowed Torq-thrust wheel lately somwhere at a site about classic american muscle car wheels. anybody knows?

Around $400 US a pair. I know of a set of Fuchs for sale, 6" rears, and 4.5" (narrowed) fronts, polished and painted charcoal. I'll find a price next week.
