<<I had some problems fitting the rear wheels on my brake drums. The wheels hit a bolt head in two places on each wheel, ~1/4 by 1/2". The guys at Discount caught this and wouldn't install the wheels until I Dremeled a couple of small divots in the back of each wheel. Once my 20 minutes of machine work was complete, these wheels installed with no further problems. >>

Question: When I switched to alloys I removed these two bolts from each rear wheel and have had no problems. Should I be worried? Thanks! Greg & Val 86.5 Camper Syncro WLE 79 Bug
