Refinishing two piece wheels on a CL65

I am looking to have a set of two piece CL65 wheels refinished. For those that have done the two piece wheels did you disassemble them and have the inside done separate from the outer rim. If so are there any tricks to doing this?

If it is a simple matter of unbolt the centers, have them refinished and then bolt them together then great.

I ask because I've seen some two piece wheels that us an interference fit screw to keep it from backing out. The problem is that once you remove them you run the risk of damaging the threads or you have to replace the fasteners.

I found the answer on the wheel bolt torque. 18 ft-lb and I used Loctite Blue.
