How bad would 3 bolts on the ridge be for rim integrity? |
I'd worry about messing with the wheel itself, for fear of compromising it's structural integrity now or after any corrosion of holes drilled. But, let's hear from others more experienced in such matters.
I've not yet done any of this, but have an eye out for aluminum pizza pans for my Ford Econoline van with factory aluminum wheels. I'm hoping to find some to fit snugly just inside the rim lip, or perhaps just over it, to be self-centering. Just inside the rim prolly best, so when it hits a bump, the vertical load on the pizza pan is directly absorbed and contained by the rim lip, rather than side-stressing the pizza pan mounts.
