You cannot mill steel wheels like aluminum ones as there's not enough material there. Guys have stretched the 22" tires over the 22.5" steel wheels though. It's not safe & should not be done as the tire is compromised.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
