Flat tires are a part of life, but you can never tell when you might get one. If Murphy’s Law applies, it will happen when you’re already late for work and its raining. And then it’s impossible to get the wheel off because the road grime has literally glued the rotor to the rim. Why?..
On any vehicle, the rotor sits flush against the rim. As you drive at high speeds through all sorts of weather conditions, moisture, grease, dirt and heat form a sticky seal that locks the rotor and rim together. Think of what happens when you moisten a suction cup and then stick it to a window. The moisture forms a much stronger seal than the cup would have normally. This is what happens with your wheels.
Kleen Wheels Wheel Mates make removing rims fast and easy by preventing the sticky seal from forming. Wheel Mates are thin discs that are mounted between the rotor and rim. These non-sticky, non-metallic, non-deteriorating discs prevent the two metal surfaces from adhering. The discs are made from an industrial laminate that will not corrode or melt. It actually absorbs some of the heat from the rotor to aid brake cooling.
Not only do Wheel Mates make changing a flat easier, they prevent rust and corrosion on the contact surfaces. There is no need for lubricants because the rotor and rim will always move smoothly against the clean surface provided by Wheel Mates.
Kleen Wheels Wheel Mates have a lifetime warranty and are made in America. Choose from 5 sizes to get the Wheel Mates that are right for your vehicle.
If the unexpected happens, be prepared with Wheel Mates. They make tire removal easier and faster than ever before so you can get on your way.
