pinske Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 so got myself some new wheels, went for a little trial fit and they dont sit flush against the hub. the hub has a little lip on it that the centre holes of the old wheels slid over but the new ones centre hole is slightly smaller and bevelled so doesnt go on. anyone got a solution on how to sort it? will i have to grind some of the centre hole so its larger to slide over?Pinske Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pinske Posted January 4, 2013 Author Share Posted January 4, 2013 i thought about spacers but then ill have to get longer studs to have enough thread for the nuts :/ sweet, ill get them machined then! thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Simon Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 The centre bore of the wheels you have brough is wrong (too small)You have checked they don't have any spigot rings fitted that you could remove?If not the only option you have is to get them machined correctly to fit your hubs this should be done by a machine shop as you need the wheel to centre on the hub to take the load away from the studs. Not doing this could cause a wheel in balance causing steering wheel wobble and in the worst case the studs could snap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

morgey Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 54.1mm is the size of you want them machined to i think. Maybe someone can confirm this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Simon Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Personally if possible i would go bigger then fit a spigot ring so that you can open up the market when you come to sell toyota has one of the smallest c/b's Quote Link to post Share on other sites
