If a Wheel bore looks warped

Come out of the tube like that, or was this a polishing effort gone awry?

Polishing gone awry. If anyone wants to wreck an expensive set of wheels I can give some great pointers. I kept looking at them thinking they were warped as I was polishing them. I will skip my ingenious idea next time. I knew that they were warped for sure when I tried to put some 92 axels into them and they DID NOT go. Is black Friday sales over?

If the axles would not go you could still save them. The Predators are delicate to polish. Take it slow and easy.

Is the bore diameter of a pre 09 wheel more, less or the same as a modern day mold? Is the hardness of the plastic different between the two styles?

Would one expect more wobble or less wobble with a predator type wheel?

Thanks!

Does this comparison help at all? http://www.winderby.com/m02_040829.html

I believe they are made of different material. I think the old mold wheels are softer.
