So without a better method to set it up , i used a machinist surface plate and the wheel adapter off my hunter tire ballancer to locate the wheel center , centers are a light press fit so then the dial indiactor ,taping it around the edge till it was the same , tack it in many spots quickley then final welding .
a test spin on the ballancer of all 5 wheels none were out of runout more than the tire machine called ok , using the dial indicator on the machine they looked good .
my hunter road force tire machine has a bare wheel setting .
Today they are off to be powder coated black
