Re: Wheel spacers

Aluminum would be great. You can use wood working blades on a jigsaw to cut. General rule of thumb 3 teeth touching metal at all times. Lubricate while cutting or drilling. Milk or cream was a household solution. Holesaw for center bore , can be larger than wheel bore it doesn't matter. Save the wheel by cutting down an old drill bit to scribe stud hole centers then come back with a 1/2" if you have stock studs. The oversize holes will allow a little play. Paint can could be a close diameter for drawing circle or steal the kids compass for more refined results with a starting center point.
