Jetpilot Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Been looking at a change of wheels and have a couple of options, the above being one of them. The wheels are 2 piece according to all info, but, no bolts/studs on the fronts or rears, does anyone know how these would split down please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay-350z Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Some splits are actually held in at the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay-350z Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Well normally you see all the bolts running round the out side yes? Some wheels have that on the inside, so you can only see them if you take the wheel off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KyleR Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 2 piece rims are welded together, 3 piece can be split down. Thats my understanding anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpilot Posted November 24, 2013 Author Share Posted November 24, 2013 (edited) 2 piece rims are welded together, 3 piece can be split down. Thats my understanding anyway. Not on the most part, some companies like SSR are known to weld together but not many. 2 piece compromise of 1 piece barrel/lip and detachable centre, like most Volks, 3 piece are detachable centre and a 2 piece barrel an inner and outer lip, the centre is then sandwiched between the inner and outer lip where as a 2 piece means the centre bolts to the face edge. They are advertised as two piece which is why i am stumped Edited November 24, 2013 by Jetpilot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy78 Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 There was a construction schematic on one of the websites selling them, but it is very small and I can't find a bigger one... Squinting, it does seem to say that they are welded together, but I guess you could e-mail the manufacturer and find out?

Jetpilot Posted November 24, 2013 Author Share Posted November 24, 2013 Thanks Paddy, diagram 2 and 3 show what i mentioned above a 2 & 3 piece rim. I will give it a whirl just thought i would ask here first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy78 Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 It does say in the blurb that the 2 piece are welded and 3 piece can be taken apart... you really have to squint though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
