Sorry fellas, I don't want to rain on your parade, it looks as though it is a widened wheel that has been welded. Note the silver and balck paint with a weld between. I believe they are now illegal.

Cheers,

Hi Guys.

One weld is OK. This was common practice & often the only way to get the desired width. The illegal bit is if you use 2 welds to insert a strip of metal to gain width.

If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0

May have been a repair job then, but there is definitely a bead of weld round it and two different colours either side of it.
