it certainly doesn't look good. i would try and fix the sharp edges with your drill and maybe try to throw a tube in and see if it'll hold air without puncturing?

--------- Only I didn't say "Fudge." I said THE word, the big one, the queen-mother of dirty words, the "F-dash-dash-dash" word! ---------
just adding "ed" to the end of that pretty much sums up the situation.
and sorry, I laughed pretty hard when I saw that, because having been there myself in the past it helps ease the painful memories of them all ...
as mentioned previously, not sure why you were trying to do that in the first place, looks like you must have been doing it by hand and with a big bit in thin metal it tried to bite off too big of a piece off and drove itself right through

Yea I already did. It now has a tube in it with a washer on the top to hold it in place somewhat. I will prob look for a new rim long term.

why the f*ck do you need a drill to go tubeless?
Like I said. It was in the instructions for the stans no tubes kit.
Although I have learned from this that my tubes are tubeless ready so drilling was not required.
