They are SSW rims 1 piece,Hi Tech mag repairs in Jo-Burg did it,
Have not seen them yet as they got sent straight to the shop(Wheelworx)but apparently the workmanship is top class :D Went from 8j to 10j on the lip only,That saved me a bit of money.
Give Hi Tech a call ,Then send a pic of rims and they will advise you accordinglly.
Be patient as there service is not great,But workmanship is awesome

Yea I got a quote from them as well. and the price isnt bad. I saw Bruno (SnS Drift S13) had his rims widened as well so Im looking at going that direction soon.

from 8j to 10j ... whats about 3 inches right????
