Oh forgot another one for all ya pizza pan modders. first go of it back in 1995? I tried pizza pans on my Metro xfI It was simple job because the car had aluminum wheels and lip was close enough to drill n tap 3 holes and done.
Did that and drilled each hub to match the stem and pulled them through.
The holes wer too large to hold stem still and too small to prevent movement.
But just rite to act like mini saws cutting through the valve stems slowly unnoticed untill one failed. Non issue I thought if was a road hazzard and loaded on spare.
At tire shop 2 days later I got to pay for 4 dismount replug and remounts.
A simple and stupid thing but it could have killed me too.
