Need help with boring out a wheel | Requesting help of Manufacters
Dear 6speed wheel guru's,
We just picked up some iForged Monaco's which were a demo model, and were machined to the wrong size bore on the hub. Due to this, the wheel cannot go all the way onto the hub. I put on some spacers, and this did not help, as they were not large enough. As well, if I go with bigger spacers, the 19x12 wheel in the rear will start to stick out pretty far. I was told to find a machine shop to get this done, but no place wants to do it. If there is a shop here, or possibly a wheel manufacter who can step in and do the work, that would be great. I am willing to pay for this, but its just annoying talking to every wheel repair/machine shop in the Chicago land are with no results.
Please advise,
Edward

At NUTEK we have our own machines...if you want to package the wheels up and secure them, you can ship them to us and I will take care of opening the hub bore to the exact spec needed. You will need to pay the freight to an from. Cost to do this should only run about $45.00 per wheel...that is factoring in if we need to dis-assemble and re-assemble the centers.
Feel free to call or email if you have any further questions.

Thank you for that compliment 
Any opportunity we can take to provide confidence in our brand and service...I like to think if I take the time and effort to help with a small detail like opening a centerbore, hopefully they will think of us when they order their next set of wheels
My monthly goal is to keep our machines busy, if I have the capability to help, then I am willing to try anytime
Have a great Holiday weekend all!!!
