  • [Question] convert hidden hardware faces to exposed

    Hey guys so I found a great deal on some hre 843r for my e90 they dont have great specs but I wont really be using the car much at least the next two years due to school. gonne build them aggressive once I'm done.

    So I had a weird question, they have hidden hardware is there anyway to possibly get them machined to have exposed hardware? or at least just between the spokes?
    I search and didnt get anything.
    Thanks

    It won't come out nice. They're 11 spoke wheels with 40 hole lips/barrels. That's 3.63 bolts between each pair of spokes... doesn't line up.

      Yeah that makes sense but just in general would it be possible say down the road with another set of wheels?

        You are asking a hypothetical question now. It would still depend on the wheel.


        OZ, MSW, ABT, Carlsson, etc 10 point bolt tools info

          Theoretically it should be possible to mill down the spokes so you have a flat surface to drill the bolts through, that way you can sandwich or reverse mount. But it all depends on if the face is strong enough to take that much metal out.

            Ok thanks guys really appreciate it. I'm actually going with another set wheels thats more aggressive.
