Wheel Reconditioning

WHY SHOULD YOU RECONDITION A WHEEL OR RIM?

	Once a wheel is steel shot blasted, it is much easier to see cracks and other defects that may require the wheel or rim to be removed from service.
	Once a professional finish is applied, tires are easier to mount and dismount. This means a better bead seat with less tire bead damage and better air retention.
	Longer wheel and rim service will be gained by maintaining a fresh professional coating on the wheel or rim.
	Refinished wheels and rims will have a “like-new” appearance and enhance vehicle appearance.
	Wheel and rim refinishing ensures professional tire and wheel maintenance.

WHEN SHOULD YOU RECONDITION A WHEEL OR RIM?

*IMI suggests the following guidelines to determine when a wheel or rim should be refinished:*
	When any build-up or rust, rubber or debris is present at the bead seat of a wheel or rim.
	When any rust is present between the bead seat areas of the wheel or rim.
	When any rust is present on the inside or outside of the bolt hole area of the wheel.
	When over 20% of the wheel or rim surface exhibits visible rust.
	When dry paint thickness exceeds 3 mils on the inside or outside of the bolt hole pattern of the wheel.
