I wouldn't alter the wheels that way for two reasons:
The first is structural integrity. I saw the drum of a wheel break off at the spokes In Blytheville last year. (SCCA National Tour) The owner had issues with his brake calipers rubbing against the spokes of the wheels so he shaved the back of the spokes. I realize you are talking about a different part of the wheel, but I still wouldn't do it. The second reason is that any inconsistency in the new surface could cause the wheel to not be perfectly "plumb". -Meaning the wheel might sit at a slight angle rather than parallel to the hub. Even if you are only off by a little, it could create a noticeable wobble. |
