I plug welded the holes that were already there then machined it smooth on a LARGE lathe. Then i transfered it to an Bridgeport end mill and carefully laid out the correct 5x127 (5x5) lug pattern. Had to get them powder coated again but man they turned out sharp!!!........




Just kidding, they sell them in a 5X127 pattern.
