not sure what wheel you have, but if it has no centercaps, you can remove your hub, (has to have no centercap for removal of axle. then remove the 4 bolts on the back, and brake line, and you can lay the wheel facing the ground, and grind down the back of the stud that has the lug on it.

^^ this idea works in my head...
sounds right, and doable with no wheel damage.

maybe have clearence issues with the back of the rotor and the hub.

just trying to give u as many options as possible.
