Thanks for posting.

How was the center section removed?
How do you ensure the wheel is true before re-welding?
Metal is lost from the mounting tab's when it is cut free from the rim.
I also assume more mounting tab metal is lost during weld area prep for re-welding, (the removal of chrome plating from the tabs and rim to allow re-welding).
How do you compensate for loss in mounting tab material?

The above questions are not intended to be negative. They are to clarify the process and what is required to preform this level of wheel restoration.

Thanks
Bernhard
