'Splitting' 3-piece rims?

Recommended Posts

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

:offtopic1: but still about wheels!

 

What size tyres do you have on your D90s? 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.
