Best way is to get it done on a lathe. 66-68mm I think. Or you could use a holesaw as long as you can locate the pilot drill with some sort of plate
bolted to the back of the wheel. Remember some wheel balancing machines rely on the centre hub hole being true to be able to balance correctly. I
would not use a dremmel.
Lathe is the way to go.
