and you may never get a tire shop to mount and balance tires on those rims again.
most of the current rim clamp style tire machines clamp only to the rim so you can probably get tires mounted on the rim once you epoxy in the center cap.
Most every tire balance machine uses a center shaft that has to pass through the center hole you just epoxied shut. There is a reason the cap is removable.
Since anyone who epoxies the center hole closed might still want a smooth ride, google dynabeads as it will be the only way to balance it out without using a hammer and chisel. On the plus side, the vibration will keep you from going over 30 to 40mph possibly saving fuel.
