I'm sure we've all seen or heard of people having thier wheels widened by an inch or two. Has anyone seen someone take a production wheel and make a skinny out of it? I love the look of my wheels, originally I was going to powdercoat some prostars but how cool would it be to create a skinny of the split spokes? Anyone see this done before?

I saw a pic last night on the corral of some Cobra R skinnies and it looked rediculously awesome!

I don't know if this pic will help you, but I think they would look soooo sweet on a Fox.

Yeah, I want to 'skinny' my front wheels, and use some of the extra material to widen my rears. Think it would be cool with the GT500's.

WOW! That 345 makes the 295 look like a front runner!!

I think stock wheels that are widened/slimmer are sweet!!! Makes a great sleeper!!
