Would anyone care to share their experiences in enlarging 12 mm holes to 14 mm for lug bolts/studs in aluminum rims. Is this something that can be done with a hand held electric drill with success or does it require a machine shop to do it accurately enough to have true running wheels? Has anyone screwed up a rim while trying to enlarge the lug holes? You can reply either to the list or pmail me directly if you like. Thanks, Ed |
