Re: stock wheel rims

Zack,

When you go to cut the studs out Don't cut across the nut and stud you Will
damage your rim!  What you need to do is heat the stud up at the end of the
nut, aiming down into the nut till the stud is red hot with a hot flame then
hit it with oxigen and the stud will melt & literally flow out of the nut
till it is gone.  The rim should be unscathed!!  The nut should just twist
off using a pliers or vice grips when it is still hot.  This is like doing
exhaust when you cut the inner or outer pipe off the good one you want to
keep.  This is probably not something a person unfamiliar with a torch can
do well the first time but it is an easy task with practice.  Try it on a
couple of old nut & bolts on a bench to get the feel before you graduate to
your car.

If you have any questions please feel to ask!  (-:

Subject: stock wheel rims
 
I may need a stock wheel rim after the fire wrench is used to remove the
lug nuts from my rear wheel (see earlier posts). What are the best
sources for rims?
