Seperating 3 Piece Work Wheels

[Dean_HR31]

Hey guys,

I need to get the centres of my Work S1 wheels taken appart from the dish so i can get them re painted.

Does anyone know who can do this for me in Melbourne?? Im in the northern suburbs.

Ok..on my equips i needed a 8mm double hex socket and a 8mm spanner from memory....make sue ur tyres are completely deflated and then find somwhere comfy to sit down ...takes a while

so this doesnt need to be done by a professional? Do they need to be screwed back on to a certain tightness??

I hope not..... Just tight.

Another idea is take wheels of the car, clean them with wax and grease remover or similar, tape them up really well and then cut around the center piece with a super sharp blade and paint away

They need to be sealed when reassembled (like a silastic gasket). Try the guys at Traction Tyres.

the centres dont need to be sealed

to remove all you do is unbolt them and knock em out

unless they are welded in, then your in a bit of shit

Ok, this may be a dumb question but would the tyres have to come off??

[Dahtone Racing]

in theory no but i would take em off anyway
