homemade DIY split-rims

[kramerbuccs24]

I hope that they're structurally sound because they look AMAZING!! Subscribing to this thread, post more pics when they're done and mounted on the car!

i got these damaged mercedes ATS barock wheels in 14" diameter and i was wondering what to do with them? they had been rendered useless because someone had driven them on the sidewalk and cracked the wheels.

So i took couple BBS RS 16" rimrings and got some crazy ideas


Then i thaught that why not to try to fit those lips on these wheels and i cut off the stock rimrings.


Yes, that is snow...


Then i drilled the holes in the remaining centerpiece, using a cracked rimring as a template.


after that it was normal splitrim assembly, ofcourse i needed to polish those old worn rimrings i had first. but everyone knows how to do that so i didn't bother to take any pictures.

almost the final product, i'm not sure what color i should paint'em. Mercedes astral silver is allways a good choice, the orginal color.
