Machining wheel offsets

Hi Todd,

Do you have any experience with having wheels machined to a bigger offset?
I have some Centras with 25mm offset that I'd really like to be more like
30mm or 35mm (left-rear tire rubs some with 195/50-15's).  I love the wheels
themselves; never thought about the possibility of altering their offset.
Would you have any suggestions on how to proceed (type of shop, safety,
etc.)?

Thanks!
