I won't pork you as bad. I need 15k, but you'll need to send your wheels to lock

Lock doesnt want to tell you guys this, but if you just jack the truck up, bolt the wheel on, put it in drive, and then hold a pocket knife against the lip you can mill your own wheels.

Sorry trevor.

500 each on the brand new Alcoa 24s. Shipping on the 24s is usually 80 each through UPS. If you have the wheels already I will machine them for 150 each and you pay the shipping. If you buy the wheels from me the adapters are 750 shipped. But if you buy just the adapters by themselves they are 850 shipped.

lock when milling the wheels down do you have to remove any of the lip? The reason I am asking is I found some wheels cheap but the front 2 have some small nicks on the rear lip and one of them has a gouge about 1/8 inch deep on it. Just wandering if it would come out or if I need to repaire it first.

I can fix it for you if you want me to. The gouge in the wheel is from the roadgrime getting between the bead and wheel. On the used wheels you have to watch for cracks in the gouges. They usually dont come about until the milling process or until you have the tire on and it doesnt hold air.

Another thing you need to make sure of is if the wheels are hub piloted or stud piloted...

I'm not trying to cut into your business or nothing but I got a friend that works at a truck salvage place and I used to work for a machine shop that could probably do the machining for me(he didn't even charge me nothing for the last two things he done for me). My question is what do I need to find for wheels and how involved is the machining process? Oh and obviosly you think the adapters you sell are safe, so what do you get for a set?
