You can go wider without too much difficulty. A local club member made his rear rims wider by splitting both the front & rears and swapping the pieces and rewelding. The fronts got narrower and the rears wider. His was set up for drag racing. Forget about making your rims larger diameter. Just find a set of larger diameter aftermarket rims you like and swap them.
