Got the wheel from Summit (still back ordered from Jegs
) and I stripped the paint off, and drilled the
holes for the studs and the little holes for the horn button but then I went a couple of steps further.
I put it on the 12 ton press and bent the spokes in about an inch so it looks flatter like the original and
then I took some sandpaper and sanded off the cheap looking ridge that goes all around the top
of the padding.
I cut the padding around the outer edges of the spokes back alittle so you can see more of the spokes
and then I went around the outside edges of the spokes with a file so it looks more faceted like an
real tuff wheel
Last I wire wheeled the metal and went over the whole thing with scotch brite to bring out the shine
and also dull up the padding because I think it looked too shiny
I like it enough to put it on my driver but I don't think it would fool any judges
