Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
But is it worth the expense ? Or could you live with it being a little rough or slightly off center ? As long as the locking hub fits, the hole is not critical to function.Originally Posted by Irving
My T.P. wheeling and dealing feedback is here.
Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one, and it stinks more than mine.

I guess I don't know enough to know what's right here. I don't want a wheel that's difficult to balance, or improperly use a tool that's going to get me cracks. They are junkyard wheels, so almost no cost will be worth it to most people. I don't know how much it would cost, but $50 wouldn't be out of the question.
You could always check for a hole saw in correct size and jig up something for drill press to hold wheel.
Guys use a router to open up center bores, but machinists sure cringe about it. Feeds and speeds and such.
From your pic looks like could use flush trim bit with bearing, run router from inside wheel, slow and lite cuts, neatness shouldn't matter till last pass. Bearing keep from gouging too deep, keep bit square to surface.
That's what I'm thinking.
I'd do either in a heartbeat. Just the fronts for manual hubs?
If the wheels are not hub-centric and locate on the studs only, you don't need to be that concerned about being super accurate.
My Feedback
Credit TFOGGER : Liberals only want things to be "fair and just" if it benefits them.
Credit Zundfolge: The left only supports two "rights"; Buggery and Infanticide.
Credit roberth: List of things Government does best; 1. Steal your money 2. Steal your time 3. Waste the money they stole from you. 4. Waste your time making you ask permission for things you have a natural right to own. "Anyone that thinks the communists won't turn off your power for being on COAR15 is a fucking moron."
YES, but with much faster shifting speed and much better gear ratios.The old Porsche Sportomatic from the 1960s is new again?
It's just the one wheel, and it is to make it fit over the front hubs. There were two different styles of center hub wheels, one regular, and one flush fitting. The flush center caps came on rims with that little interior ring. Of the five rims I found, only one has that ring. I was going to use it as my spare, but the ring prevents it from seating properly on the spare carrier, so right now it's riding on the rear wheel. I need to source some router parts I guess. Wheels are lug centric.
