        Polished, though I'm now wondering what you mean by stepped.

              This is going to be legen ... wait for it ... dary!!

              Today I did a testfit with the wheels, no I didn't do this before. I am very very pleased with the fitment. The front needs a little work, but the back is great. Maybe a tiny spacer, but doesn't need much.
              Nice!!

              I'll let the pictures do the talking











              The front is poking a little too much. But a little more low and some camber will fix this for me. Again, very pleased.

                      Definitely gotta get some rear spacers just to even out the front to rear fitment. Looks great though!

                                Side project - polishing "machine"

                                To polish the wheels I needed something to turn the wheel without the center in it. On youtube I saw a clip of some dude that was using a wheelbarrel wheel to turn it, so that was an awesome idea that I was going to use.

                                So, I took a wheelbearing that I had lying around with a centerlock wheelhub. I cut off the center treads and made a new aluminum thing to mount the wheel.





                                Then I welded a baseplate so I can secure the contraption on a wooden base or on my workbench.



                                And this is how the wheel slips over it.



                                Now all that is left is the propulsion of the thing so I can have it turning for sanding and polishing.

                                Why do I do this? Because building this will cost me less time then sanding and polishing it all by hand.
