Service Information
Refurbishing a split rim alloy wheel involves more work than a standard alloy wheel, as the components of the split rim must be separated, processed individually, and reassembled after the refurbishment is complete. Split rim wheels can have two or three parts, plus centre caps and other accessories. If you are willing to separate the parts of the split rim wheels before sending them to us, we offer a lower price.
Depending on the build, we can combine split rim work with powder coating, diamond cutting, or colour coding to achieve the final finish you want.
Our Split Rim Process
At Rolling Rims, we understand the importance of alloy wheels for any vehicle. That is why we provide a variety of services to keep your wheels in top condition, from repairs through to full custom finishes.
Step 1 - Remove
If you have brought your vehicle to us, we jack it up, place it on axle stands, and remove the wheels. Once inside the workshop, the tyres and valves are removed so the split rims are ready to dismantle.
Step 2 - Strip
With the tyres and valves removed, the split rims are dismantled so each component can be stripped and cleaned properly before refinishing starts.
Step 3 - Prep
Each part is steam cleaned and prepped. If there is damage, we sand, weld, and media blast as needed before the refinishing stage. If the existing hardware is not fit for reuse, we can supply replacement hardware.
Step 4 - Lip Finish
Depending on the style of the lip, we can polish it, diamond cut it, or powder coat it to suit the look you want from the finished wheel.
Step 5 - Paint
Once prepped, the faces and barrels are coated in the chosen finish and cured before final protection is applied.
Step 6 - Rebuild
With every piece ready, the split rims are reassembled to your chosen specification using either existing or replacement hardware as agreed.
Step 7 - Assemble
Your split rims are then rebuilt with new valves and your tyres refitted. If your tyres are low on tread, this is a good time to replace them. We balance the wheels and make sure they are within spec before they go back on the vehicle. Note: TPMS stems will be reused if suitable. We will not refit tyres with excessive damage.
Warranty Information
We provide a full 12-month warranty with all refurbishments. This excludes stone chips, curb damage, and damage around the bolt holes or around the lip caused by incorrect fitting. All warranty claims need to be inspected beforehand.
FAQs
Answers to the questions customers usually ask before booking
Split rim wheels need to be dismantled so each component can be cleaned, repaired, refinished, and then rebuilt correctly. That makes the process more involved than refurbishing a one-piece wheel.
