Re: Got some new wheels: Boss 338's in 20x10 and 20x8.5

The cap selection may help the dust cover a little but, stock it is nearly 3/4 of an inch that needs to be eliminated and the machining of the rotor will still need to be done. The reason I indicate the cone shape is to keep the streangth in the hub, if you step machine it it will be very thin around the race and may break. Also you will still need to remove any clips and silicone the cap on, there is no room for the clips unless you run a thick spacer. I looked at other caps from BOSS and none will give you enough room.

I am not trying to scare you off these wheels (they are *****en) I am just trying to eliminate your futue frustration after a costly purchase. I paid $177.00 each for mine and was able to do the mods myself.
