Re: New 20" wheels Bore size to small (Help)

for my torq thrust st wheels, I used a router with a wood bit and opened the wheel bore a 1/2 inch. I used conical lug nuts to center the wheels. Keep in mind, the wood bit worked fine on the aluminum wheel and I picked up the the wheels used for a couple hundred bucks. Not sure I could do it on new expensive stock.

Take the rotors off and find someone with a lathe that can turn down that casting to the right size. I have done this before and it works great.
