If they're modular wheels you can change parts to change offset, width and PCD etc., but if you're trying to modify cast one piece wheels.... well, don't. Or just drive waaaaaaay the hell away from me.
Love,
Mic

My suggestion (not that you asked for it) would be to buy wheels that fit if this is for a street application.

got a pic of the rim? Neales wheels in sydney might be able to help you. or you may need to get two halves and get them made out if the centre is removable from the old ones.
