I'm borrowing a friends spare set of rims for the winter so I can have some work done on my rims and still have the car working in the meantime. I will be giving these wheels back to him in the spring. They actually have a horrible layer of black powder coat on them that flakes off really bad. I've been using flat black touch up paint on them to get them looking decent. For the center caps, I bought a set of generic plain back center caps and ordered a set of chrome god's head stickers for them. I think it actually looks cool enough to share here, but I will definitely be going back to the factory wheels in the spring.

I'm also looking to get my factory rear rims widened by 1.5 inches, but I'm not sure where to take it. I know Weldcraft does it, but I'm not looking to get them chrome dipped and I would also like to do this locally without involving shipping my wheels. I've called a couple of places that say they repair cracked and bent aluminum wheels, but they say that they don't perform widening.
Any suggestions? I am well aware that doing anything involving chrome is illegal in NY, but I'm not looking for chrome.
