Andy T 0 Posted January 21, 2006 Does anyone have any tips for dissembling BBS RS rims? I've got the outer 'lips' off but i'm struggling to remove the hub centre from the main 'drum'. I've tried belting it with a rubber mallet, and have already run a blade through the factory sealant, I think it must of formed a strong bond! I don't want to try and prise it off with a tool in case I damage the mating faces. Maybe I should be using heat, or something to break down the sealant? I'm in no rush anyway, might as well do it right! Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Polisher 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Run a heat gun arround the mating face for about 10 mins and then use the rubber hammer again. cheers mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy T 0 Posted February 27, 2006 Thanks. When you say heat gun, do you mean the electric type or a blow torch? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corradophil 3 Posted February 27, 2006 :offtopic1: but still about wheels! What size tyres do you have on your D90s? I take it the rears are 8 inch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I take it the rears are 8 inch. 195/45's all round, the rears are 8" so you get a nice slightly stretched look, the pic doesn't do em justice though.
