Disassembly of multipeice wheels...?
im going to have to disassemble some multipeice wheels so i could get em powdercoated....face in flat black and lips in gloss black....
is this a process i can do myself (just seems like removing bolts) or do you guys recommend going to a wheelshop or somewhere to get it done professionally...if so what will the cost be like...?

When a bolt it torqued, it stretches. That stretching affects the force the bolt can apply. Most bolts for such applications are designed to be used once because of this torque stretch. You could reuse the bolt, but the bolt will be more prone to potential failure.
