This was just to be a proof of concept, but it seems to work well enough as is to get through 12 rims. That being said, if anyone has an 5 lug upright and hub just sitting around I could borrow, I'd take gladly take it!
HF Bench Grinder with Kustom PVC pulley HF 8 inch wheel to act as the hub Bicycle inner tube for a belt 5/8" all thread for a spindle 3" wood screws for added hilarity |

Someone either here or on FB posted a pic of a wheel polishing rig that involved putting the car into gear with one corner up in the air and the motor running. I think that counts as more ghetto due to the greater potential for damage if the whole car moves than if just the wheel/hub does...
