Default Stretching Sawblades

Is it possible to stretch Sawblades to 11 inches? I would like to put my 9.5's on the front and have my 8.5's stretched to 11 inches to run 315's on the rear.

If possible, where to get this done, and any estimates of price?

You might be better off getting 92-93 ZR1 sawblades that came in 11" width . They will handle the 315/35-17's. :cool:

You might be better off getting 92-93 ZR1 sawblades that came in 11" width but they are unidirectionals compared to your 94 directionals.
Say again, I'm not sure I follow you?
