I'm interested to know more about the drilling process.
Can anyone elaborate on how this is accomplished as the driling needs to be favored towards the wheels axis.
I also notice there are inserts used?
The size and offsets appear perfect for the 2GS!
Nobody seems to have mentioned the bore size on these wheels?
And lastly, has anyone weighed these BMW concave Style95 wheels?

For the guys that are having their wheels redrilled with the steel insert, can you comment on the lug nuts that you are using?
First of all, do the stock GS wheels use a tapered lug nut? And after redrilling with the flat steel insert, do you then need some washer or something with flat lugnuts?
Please clear up the confusion someone.
Thanks

Anybody know where I can get some chrome borbet center caps for the wheels? I've tried searching on ebay but no luck yet. If not, any chrome center cap that will fit these.

Let us know if they fit.
The centercap world is quite a cluster-F because not only does the diameter need to be right (obviously), but the diameter, depth, and design of the inner claws need to match your wheel.
I've struggled with this on more than one occassion.
