What's sup ,

Just picked up a set and was wondering if I can just take bolts out 1 at a time to replace them . Or do I have to take them completely apart ? Any help would be a appreciated




I just wanna change bolts but don't want to take them apart

These are my wheel here ......

I've heard of people doing this. You'll get differing opinions. Deflating the tire and doing the bolts one by one is a possibility though. There are only two risks.

1) Since your RMs are two piece, while replacing a bolt you can cross thread it (unlikely, but possible).
2) The seal fails and once you're done the wheel won't hold air.

I say go for it. The worst that happens is that your tire leaks and you have to reseal them. Every wheel geek should have to do a reseal / clean up once in their life.

I was thinking that but also thinking as a remove a bolt before a put another on in maybe squeeze some sealer in bolt hole then put new bolt in?

That would be a mess and ineffective. The seal is on the interior where the lip meets the center/barrel. If that fails you've got a leak. I think you'll be fine though.

take every other bolt out. replace those with the new ones, and then take the other ones out thereafter. No issue with doing that at all
