Subject:      Wheel swaps and center bores
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

All, I'm considering getting the center bore on my Audi rims enlarged to fit over the front axle dust cap on the van. With everyone trying to make a buck, I don't want to walk into "Bubba's" backyard machine shop and have him tell me, "She-ott, I can cut those rims to fit a Kenworth". When I get enough input from the locals on reputable machine shops (and that will be hard enough as their are very few shops to speak of down here), what equipment should they have and what questions should I ask that will separate the A-team from the posers? I've got to find a good machine shop anyway so I'd rather do it on a rim and not an engine.

Thanks,

TJ Melbourne FL 87 Syncro
