magluke Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 hi you will be able to grind them your self our get an adult to supervise you all you need is a .angle grinder .rims .and c onfedence you will have to take every thing off your rim first and then lie it on the floor and grind it a about a 40 degre angle all the way around on bothe sides it is worth praticing on your old rims first . luke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PEACHY Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Hello,You should really be able to do them yourself, put the blade of the grinder on a slight angle like this \Just give it your best shot. My friend in Spain where i live did it first time he did it, and it was realy good.God luck with your angle grinding,Sorry for any mistakes spelling wise,Best luck,Adam...
