You would drill them. The rotors are easy. the axles and the hubs are the harder parts.

Do you have to run some sort of space on the front wheel or does the wheel fit over the hub?

I made a jig for drilling the rotors out of a 1/2 thick billet specialties wheel spacer. I added steel bushings to the holes and added a hub centric ring to keep it centered on the rotor.

Question so what rear brakes did you use? I have rear disc and I'm trying to find rear brakes or 15' wheels that I can run.

With the screw-in studs installed they charged me around $360. This price included all machine work, new studs and shipping back to me. It cost me a little over $100 to ship due to the weight.

So the front rotors and rear rotors/drum are not re-welded, they are just redrilled? Any pics of them.

Well I found your pics on the other thread, looks good.
But who did you do you talk to at Moser? that will do this for us?
I have a guy interested in the tire wheel combo that denali on 26 has for sale, if the 5 lug can be done pretty quick..
Thx
