i measured some 5 hole ford rims today that measured about 1/2 inch off on bolt hole to bolt hole... 1 inch on the furthest across.. the center is about 1/4 of an inch differnce... I believe i have found a machinist to lay the 5 hole plate off a pw rim witch is only enough to save the bolt pattern before it starts into the taper back to the rim..( i would save all i could )... then lay it on the outside of the rim to be used using the center holes used as a centering place...these rims have lock ring on them so i personally have no problem with them... they have 750-20 rubber witch is useable... the offset doesn't look to bad...if any body has tried let me know... i know some people have issues with doing this but your not cutting into the rim to be used... any input would be helpful... no critisisem please... if they can send a guy to the moon they can make a stupid rim for a power wagon that doesn't cost 500 dollars each.
