Pin drives/tight fit/way too tight

Didn't get much response at Local Clubs BACC so I'm moving it over here:

THE WHOLE THREAD:

Spinner Removal Tool

MY SPECIFIC QUESTION

How tight do your pins fit the holes?

OK the spinner removal tool works great, but, but, but, then removing the wheel from the pins????(or putting the wheel on)

Just how tight is the fit?
I got the pin-alignment tool from Trigo to set the pins right prior to mounting wheel, but the tolerance between the pins and the holes in the Compomotive wheels is so close, they are a bear to remove.(or put on) (after fighting for two days, I still can only get the right rear wheel on with only four pins, if I put the fifth pin in, there is no way the wheel will go over all five pins)(the Trigo pin-alignment tool goes on snugly)

Watching the Formula One, and Cart races this weekend (aren't they pin drives), the pit crews removed/replaced the wheels with ease. The tolerance on the pins/holes can't be as close as mine.

Anyone hone out the wheel holes to make the install/removal process easier?

Just how tight do the pins need to fit into the holes?

Thanks, Wayne
