Product description

The Snap-On Small-Diameter Rim Protection kit is a specialized accessory designed to protect expensive small-diameter wheels from damage during the tire changing process. Small-Diameter Rims, especially those on high-performance or vintage small-diameter wheels, are often made of lightweight alloys or have delicate finishes that can be easily scratched by the steel components of a tire changer. These protectors provide a durable, non-marring barrier that fits over the rim edges, preventing the bead breaker shovel or mounting head from making direct contact with the wheel. In a professional shop, offering small-diameter wheel tire service requires these specialized tools to ensure customer wheels are returned in pristine condition. Manufactured from high-impact, low-friction synthetic materials, these protectors are built to withstand the pressures of bead breaking while providing a smooth surface for the tire to slide over. This is an essential tool for any shop looking to expand their service capabilities to the small-diameter wheel market while maintaining the highest quality standards.
