I think I can take the two rims I have, cut them in half, and weld the two halves that have the deeper lips together to make a rim with a skinny drop center.

Factory rally barrels have a wide drop center so they wouldn't have the wide outer lip that I want. I could flip these barrels and make them work but then the outside lip would have the drop center step closer to the outside edge which I don't like.
