Good suggestion using steel ...

Here is more pics .
Tough part ( after figuring ratio placement for holes) was drilling and bolting in the self tapping screws - those rims are made with almost hardened steel , maybe spring steel I don't know .
I used loctite and ground the underneath part off so lug bolt surface is true .
