wheel centre boring
 
Anybody know a place in NJ or close that offered this service? I need to have a set of wheels bored out a bit and haven't had any luck finding a place yet.

We recently had a set of wheels done for a customer, I'm pretty sure we sent them out to static coating in Clifton, Nj.

I will double check for you in the morning

if you want to take it on yourself, the above mentioned methods are acceptable. most wheels are lug centric anyway meaning the lugs support the load of the vehicle, the hub is used to "center" the wheel so the lugs can tighten them evenly. it doesn't need to be perfect to work just some extra care when tightening to make sure its centered.

Factory wheels are hub centric and lug centric, besides these are higher end wheels so no hole saw and If I'm boring them out if rather make them hubcectric while I'm at it. Need to go to 77.8mm from 72.6

I know it's not close but RVM wheels in Queens does great work. The machined my niche targas for my V and came out perfect.
