Preping 640 18" wheels tonight. Photographed, Rim direction marked (engraved w/ dremel grinder), off-set measured, rims powder, hubs paint. -the thing that I'm wondering about is that the rear rim valve stem hole has been reamed out from the tube side? I guess so that tire slippage would not tear the valve stem off. It would just get ****ed inside. Was this a common thing to do? Has anyone else seen this? Should I fix it, or just dress it and leave it be? With maybe a curved SS washer inside, a cut down flat outside or something?
Yes indeed - more of my dorky questions. Well, ya know - the details.
Book says Front off-set 1 1/8" , Rear 1 1/2"
My rust speced out at Fr 1" , Rear 1.4" ...so pretty close I guess. Gudnuff.
