![]() ok, i was just informed that this got deleted in the hack a while back so here it is again, here is how i make deep dish rims out of rims i already have
Things you will need: 1. set of rims to be modified 2. dremmel with cutting wheel 3. hobby knife 4. light grit sand paper 5. super glue 6. patience start by finding a set of rims you want to make into deep dish rims, i chose the scion tc stock rims (only 2 will need to be modified) ![]() look for the place that you need to cut it so that it will have a nice depth but still be functional (here it is right in between the ridge and the back of the spokes) ![]() using your dremmel, cut the wheel at the spot previously located and separate the 2 portions (use the ridge to help guide you around the rim) ![]() use a hobby knife to remove any excess plastic left by the cutting wheel ![]() test fit the two pieces together how they will be joined, and use sand paper to even it out to prevent from creating an out of round wheel ![]() once the two pieces are ready, carefully glue them together, making sure they are centered with each other ![]() after you have modified two of the rims this way, you can add some tires and try them out ![]() ![]() if you want to take it an extra step you can always give the rims a new coat of paint ![]()
