Right???

Anyway that's pretty much what I figured he meant, the cooling holes/hand holes/whatever you want to call them, asking about machining them out to a different design.

Someone posted 19.5 Alcoas with the small holes on the CL here and I got a boner until I saw they were large pattern 8 lug, worthless to me...guess I'll keep running steelies.

The ones on my red F350 in the last pic are the most I have ever cut off a wheel. The load rating was still in the neighborhood of 4800lbs per wheel.

Someotherguy, We have our 19.5 and 19 direct bolts back in stock now if you are interested.
