Jaffacakes Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 Just get a grinder, a old rim and just grind it. Seriously though, its so easy. All you have to do it stroke the grinder clockwise down the rim at any angle less than 90 degrees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anzo Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 I find that stone grinding discs work best. They completely fecking rip your rim and anything else they touch to peices; so you have to do it really gently and quickly, but its better than the steel cutters.
