Potentially a stupid question so bear with me.
What would stop you from machining a wheel with a centre bore of 57 to a centre bore of 65? Is it possible?
All the wheels I like are stolen from other makes but the centrebore is where I'm falling down...

if the bolt pattern and offset are correct then there's usually no problem at all doing this.

Generally wheel bolt tapers aren't machined leaving enough depth beneath to take anything much off the mounting face, especially on am OEM wheel
