Wheels Sizes

Hi All,
I amlooking at the wheels I want for my car and they are not your standard vw styled wheels. I am going for 17" and they only come 8" wide. I plan to cut and narrow the wheels for the front when they get here don5 to 6" but I am hoping to leave the rears as they are.

My rear trailing arms have been narrowed by 23mm each side but I want to run big rubber. I have attached a mock up of one I have done in photoshop so you can see the look I am working towards. Anyone know if these tyres will work/fit?
Thanks

Your key will be offset at that width, especially at full suspension travel.

Who's going to cut your wheels down?
I looked at getting this done in NSW and was told it wwas a major no-no.
Are they going to be cut & welded?
Just asking cause I wanted to get a cookie cutter modified to fit in the spare wheel well of my beetle.
Cheers

lots of places do it. Yes re-welded. Ask any of the hot rod shops, they'll point you in the right direction in your area.
