I have to replace a bent wheel and picked up a good replacement from BD Stone.
(Thanks!)

I am going to have the 00 Pedrini early wheel cut to fit the later hubs with centering rings. So far in the DFW area I've only found a couple of shops that say they can do this at $125 per wheel. Wheeeeho! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

That's a little steep for me!

Outside of this, I think my other option is to bolt the wheel to a spare hub, mark the distance to cut out, and dremel tool the opening to a close fit. I know it will still be a lug centric wheel, since I can't cut it exactly to fit and centered. i think it should balance ok. Mayo's Performance here can lug centric balance wheels.

Any suggestions doing this or is there a better way? Anyone done this at home? All suggestions welcome. I've searched many ways and can't find a thread on the actual cutting.
