This is not how you enlarge a circle with a router. It's a two step process if you actually want a perfect circle. You take half the depth off on the first pass using a flushcut or rabbit with a 1/32 undersized bearing. Then you flip it over and this time use a flush bearing riding on the newly cut circle.
I used a large grinding wheel on a drill, you just focus on taking off equal amounts, it's slower but more accurate, grind to fit. It was the thickness of a match book or thumb nail about 0.030" per side on mine but that may vary.
@@CptAmazing dude absolutely not lol. Hubcentric wheels need to be dead nuts center on the wheel bore, the lugs just hold it on the hub and against the mounting face.
@@landon_8888I suppose you could try this, and if you don’t get it close to dead nuts, you could always pay a professional shop to bore it larger, then use a hub centric ring.
Your both right, but if you torque all 8 properly it will hold on the nut annular taper but best to have the bore snug also, but many times on rims the rim does not even touch the hub, but on a 3/4" ton, nice to get a good fit for the best of both worlds, we are working together here and helping each other.
I think I passed you in Bridgeport today, I told my wife that was Cherokee Ronnie as we passed.....lol
Yup that was me I went to Lowe’s to get grinder wheels but they didn’t have any😂

Yes, this is a good idea , if you invest in the router bits, well said.
I see how the lugs will center the wheel, but what about balancing with the modified hub hole?
What’s the tool you using
hey there i got some cheap router bits at hf do you think it will work alright
Will this method work on steel obs for wheels

Bro. What is the drill bit? What is it called!!!!!!????
Router bit , such as a 3/4" groove bit, be careful it may grab and buck.
I like to mow lawns
Oh me also, buddy! I sometimes mow on the flowers. The rocks are noisy. And the wife.
How do you know it’s perfectly centered now?
If your lug nuts are cone shaped, then it should center it for you.

@@CptAmazing The nut holes in the wheels must also be tapered. If not, what should we do?
