Great info. Many thanks.
My plan is to re-use the inner sleeve & match the factory dimensions from my black rear wheel.
Getting this wheel machined for the 1" axle sleeve should be far less expensive than buying another wheel.

like i said possible but advantageous?
if the rim mfg says it is OK, no issue, BUT
remember, this is a cast wheel, NOT BILLET!!!
that said, there could be out gassing pockets that are opened up. safety is the issue, not that it can be done.
just because you stick your finger in a light bulb socket without recourse, does not mean that one day someone actually turn the power on.
the thing about cast is it can fisher. around here, rim shops will not touch a mc wheel.
