hypithitlicly(s/p) speaking lets just say i was building a motor that has the ability to put out 700 horse. Lets also say i really like my stock wheels. Is there any way to make them wider or find some that look like them. What do you guys with the big power run so you can hook up and not smoke your tires off in one run

700 eh? I don't think you should worry about the wheels at 700, you should worry about building a motor that can take the abuse of the 2 kilo's of boost you'll need to push to make that kind of power.



But, you can get someone to build you new wider wheels that look just like your stock ones.

Just look in the yellow pages for wheel builders/repair shops. A friend of mine widened the wheels on his Corvette. You pretty much give them 4 wheels, they cut the middle out of them, then weld it all back together so you get 2 whole wheels back.
