I was taking the face off so i can get them powder coated and half way through the tire released all the air. Just wondering does it have to be resealed now since its a 3 piece wheel, or is that normal.

Also the wheels are 17x7.5 41 front and 17x8.5 41 rear what should my camber be i am lowered on tein s tech

yea taking apart a 3 piece wheel is a no no unless you know what you are doing. You should try to find the torque specs for the face. I have heard they can be difficult to find though

So let me get this right.

You took apart your 3 pc wheels while the tire was still on and pressurized?

You will need to dismount the tires and reseal between the 2 barrels. Also as mentioned above get the torgue specs on the bolts.

Also, give it at least a day to cure before remounting the tires after reseal.
