I have a set of beadlock wheels for a 8 lug chevy pattern that have a set of new 37-14-15's on them. First off will a 15" wheel clear the drum brakes on a m-715? If no then forget the rest. I was wondering if anyone had tried to remove the centers from a steel wheel and recenter it? I know that this is done all the time with hummer wheels, but I have never seen an article or how-to on a regular set of wheels. My thought is to chock the wheel in a lathe and cut the center out leaving a lip. Weld in a new blank center, then recut the center on the lathe for a trued center and measure and redrill the m-715 bolt circle on the mill. I have thought about this every way I can think of and cannot see a down side to it, I have spoken to a couple friends who are welders and mechanical/structural engineers and all have told me it is doable. General consensus is that if I use 1/4 cold rolled for the blank center and tig it in that it should actually be stronger than the origional. This seemed a better alternative to me that removing the entire center section of the wheel and welding it in. This method would also make it easier to keep everything centered and true. any help is appreciated, basically looking for the reason that this is not possible before I start cutting up the wheels.
