914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Grinding off the front Hub centering ring

Posted by: bandjoey Feb 21 2013, 12:19 PM

Is it possible......
To use a normal angle grinder to cut off the centering ring? How hard is the metal?

Can it be done on the car? sawzall-smiley.gif

couldn't you have your wheels cut at a machine shop to fit onto a ringed hub?

A much better solution is to have the back side of your wheels machined to accept the ring, as it's easier to R&R wheels/tires & change flats.

It's easier to do it right.
