The plan is to get the wheels re-laced with stainless spokes and it will take some time to get the spokes made, so I'm opting to get the wheels stripped and off to the wheel builder straight away. Before stripping the wheels down it's crucial to measure the rim offset, that is to measure how the rims align to the hubs as they aren't always central. I've laid each wheel horizontally on a flat surface then measured upwards to the rim edge. I've then made a sketch of each wheel showing these measurements to pass onto the wheel builder. Finally I can chop the hubs out of the rims by slicing through them with an angle grinder
