I bought some Tacoma steelies recently and they get just ever so slightly hung up on the very base of my hub. I *think* putting lugnuts on it might seat and sinch them down fully but I'd be afraid of getting them back off for rotations and I just want it to be right.

I think It'd be best to just enlarge the hub opening ever so slightly? It's pretty miniscule. However I'm not feeling skilled in something like this and would rather take it somewhere if possible. Would I be looking at just a tire and wheel shop or a machine shop?

Thanks for any help
 
Got air? air die grinder would take a few minutes per wheel. If its as close as you say, I'd even try a half round hand file, might take longer, but worth the elbow grease. A new file is very efficient.
 
No air but I didn't thinking about just filing it. I think a good file would actually work real well in this case
