assembling oz futuras

[vgrntbeauxner]

Wow, weird. It really should only take a light skim of sealant. And if you assemble and torque before the sealant begins to cure, there shouldn't really be an issue. I prefer this method for sandwich mounted wheels anyway. For any other, I'd probably seal afterward.

i seal wheels like an oil pan -> sealant in the interface prior to assembly. but some ppl like sealing post assembly. some ppl like both.

I have done it both ways, on my AC Schnitzer's made by OZ. And i had trouble with sealing it like an oil pan, it made the lips not sit flush with the barrel. so one of the wheels wobbled when driving.

Afterwards i took them apart and cleaned the sealant, torque them down to 22-25 ft/lbs, 33-34 Nm. then sealed were the barrel and lips meet. never had an issue since then.

I mean like when you mount them you have to silicon the gap between the lip and face then the gap between the face and barrel ... or you could use one thick ass line and cover both in one shot haha.

Thanks a lot dude!

ok i got you now im going to try both for the extra security... what are the specs on yours

I torqued mine to 25ftlbs.

Assembled them then threw sealer around the 2 gaps.
