Default Wider rims? O.o

I'm thinking of adding some wider rims options. This is a stock offset old army jeep style rim that has been widened 1/8". I will also do the 1/8" and 1/4" offset versions. You can also wrap a lot of copper wire or solder to add weight. Any interest?

Any pics of what the tire would look like mounted on wider wheels? Also, what kind of paint would you recommend for these? Thanks

I just drew these rims, so they haven't been printed yet. I made the rims specifically for the Rock Creeper tire, but the Rok Lox would also do well. Well, any tire attached to this rim will have slightly more surface area on the flat, and the sidewalls will be pushed out for a slightly wider stance.
