Widening stock wheels

Just wondering if anyone knows where I can buy stock wheels but 12 wide. I have a set of 1970 deep dish wheels but would like some wider ones on the back of my truck.

Re: Widening stock wheels

A good fab shop should be able to widen a set of stock wheels. Back in the 70's my brother took the stock wheels on a 57 SWB Stepper, and reversed them. The looked awesome, moved the tires further out, but just inside the fender lips. I am sure that a reputable custom steel fabricator could widen your wheels and give you whatever back spacing you want.
