Aoshima rims

What is the best trick to fit the aoshima blitz rims onto tamiya cars?

It actually depends on the car in question; some newer Tamiya cars can accept the Aoshima wheels with no problem such as the 350Z, WRX-STi, and maybe a couple others. The only way I know how to make them fit is to cut the mounting hole off of the wheel and put a pin in its place so that the Tamiya brake disc will accept the wheel. Then again, you could alter the brake disc to accept the wheel as it already is by cutting off the part that sticks out on the brake disc. Hope this was of some help!

looks like I have to cut the mounting hole, any idea on what is the best way to do it?
I was thinking of getting a dremel and sand the part and use left ove trees to make the pin. Think that will work?
