Wheel Widening

Has anyone widened their factory 5 spoke wheels 2", ie increased the back spacing of the 15 x 7 wheels 2" on the rear wheels without any fitment issues? It looks like I will need to move the emg brake cable in an inch or two to make it happen. I know some guys have used Weldcraft Wheels here in the Detroit area and my discussions with them resulted in @ $200 per wheel which will not affect the Teal color on the wheels when they expand them.
Thanks Guys and girls.

Price sound about right. You should ha e to fit me issues that can't be fixed with a little hammer work if any.
