Wow everyone seems like they dont wanna tell the big secret of the machining process... Im sure there is atleast one person who isnt a douche bag and will let the cat out of the bag.

...and that is the truth. If machining those wheels and selling them is what he does for a living why is he going to tell people how to do the machining process. And the majority of people that can do the machining, do it for a living. Your best bet is to do like I said and just buy 1 22 already machined, ship it to your house, then take it to your local machinist.

I think I am going to start selling a how-to cd on ebay telling how to do it! LOL If you really want to get it done just do like I did on the first set of wheels I ever did, I gave my friend a 15" wheel and a 22.5 and said make them match! It has nothing to do with the OD of the wheel!
