"reverse" cold setting

just curious...

i know that (on a steel frame) one can spread a 125mm rear spacing to a 130mm rear spacing. can the reverse be done? i recently purchased a touring frame which takes 700c wheels. the rear spacing is 135mm, but i am only finding wheels that are spaced for 130mm. could the frame be "squeezed" or am i an idiot for asking. if so, just reply with the word "idiot" as the text. if not, any tips on a good and inexpensive way to do this would be greatly appreciated. thanks.
