    Alloy Wheel Centre Bore Alterations

    Right i have a set of 59.1mm centre bore wheels i need to enlarge to 60.1mm.

    as its such a small overbore, 0.5mm all round, would i get away with sandpaper/a dremel and a steady hand

    if not then can someone recommend a service/business to get this done for me in Derby or Machester areas?

    thanks

    Ben

    I had exactly the same problem a couple of weeks ago, I used a very fine metal file and then some sand paper, car seemed to drive fine with the wheels fitted with no noticable wobbles etc!

    I was working on steel wheels by the way, not alloys
