I bought a set of wheels from a member off his NA Miata with the intent to use them on our Mini. The bolt pattern is correct as is the offset but I didn't bother to check the bolt hole sizes. It turns out the wheel bolts on the Mini are a larger diameter than the Miata. Does anyone know a machine shop that could bore the bolt holes out to a slightly larger size? I'm guessing it's probably only a few mm.
I wouldn't think that's very precise. And a wheel flying off at 70 mph is nothing to sneeze at.

BAM! Minette is the man... I've had a few projects done by Mike. He's the man for quality custom machine/fab/welding work. You might need to bird-dog him for small jobs, but he'll do it right the first time, every time.Quote:

Thanks guys I'll give him a holler. What should I expect to pay for this type of job?
I know his hourly rate is $50...... however he may just quote a $ amount to do the job.
Thanks for the reccomendation, he said he can do it for around 20 bucks. TCB approved!
