BBS RS001 leaking, needs new rubber gasket

[Bruce_Z]

Hi guys,My 15 inch BBS RS seem to have developed leaks. This causes a slow puncture. I'm trying to repair them, but not sure where to get the rubber gaskets or how to repair them. Anyone can help where I can source these?Thanks guys.

Thanks...hmm Interested to know who can do the custom gaskets for these wheels since I'm also refurbishing all 4 wheels to make them shine again. These wheels lose their chrom lusture every like 2 years or so...any idea who to contact?

I had the same problem twice. You sent it to the shop to put some re silicione the gaps. In the interim period, you can alternatively use a tube for the wheel which is leaking if you need to use the car daily..

Zul, invite Miepower to Sayed for lunch. He just might be able to help you after a plate of chicken bukhara rice.

I had the same problem recently. Like simplesoul said, tyre shop applied silicon & problem fixed.

I also recently refurbished my rims at a shop in sri damansara. Very good job done and bro haywire was there with me at that time and he likes the job done on my rims too. The shop will provide loaner wheels to u while your rims are being done. Process will take 1 week.

I can take u there. Its near my house.

Pay the tyre shop to dismantle your tyre, bought your self a silicon sealant (use to tampal aquarium)...DIY! at a cost of nasi campur....

Thanks for the various feedbacks and suggestions. For my part...ive only gotten as far as dismantling the tyres fromm the wheels. The rim shop at USJ suggested to use the windscreen glue to seal the wheels, but I wasn't sure whether this would tahan or not. The slow puncture is quite irritating if it happens so I was looking for a more durable solution. Anyway, I guess if even normal silicone would work (as suggested by anakin) then maybe my concerns were not warranted. Actually these rims are no longer mounted on my e30 so i have time to spare. Im using the ac types ones for now since they are soooo much easier to clean...I'll be back next wknd so will first call up the first suggested rim specialist to see if he can help.
