From my understanding Transwheel use to sub-contract their work out to Glenn's Wheel Polishing. Not 100% on that, just something I heard. Either way, I believe both company does it.

Glenn's has never widened wheels. He polishes and straightens, but not widen. Glenn worked for Transwheel for some time. Transwheel is the only place in Tampa area that MIGHT do it.
