Who did the refinish work?

catamax944

They do look great don't they ,i hope they hold air ,i hear that 3 piece wheels tend to have problems with that.

I live in Rome Italy ,the work was done by Ver Car (www.rigenerazionecerchi.it ) in Treviso.

Confused about the sealant, is that where the seal comes out with these wheels? Never seen it squeeze through such a tiny gap on 3 piece wheels.

Regardless - awesome wheels, they are 5x130 right?

catamax944

That's where the seal is ,i don't know if it's normal to be like that,seems to be some kind of liquid rubber or silicone sealant,don't know for sure.
Yes 5x130 , they are kind of rare ,seems they made them mostly for BMW's and Merc's.


Do these require the original style valve or ordinary one work too ? The originals were full metal with a rubber washer on the inside.

The sealant is normal and required once the wheel is assembled and torqued. My 3-piece CCW's are the same type of mount and they have never leaked in 7 years

The wheels should be fine, I personally wouldn't have assembled them like that with the sealant on those surfaces. I prefer fully assembling the wheels and applying the sealant after, and not applying it between the halves and center.
