Wheel components
RIMEX introduced the Machined Extreme Service (MES) Series of wheels and rims to address the serious impact radial tires had on rim performance. The increased flexibility in radial tire sidewalls caused movement in the bead seat area. Recognizing the problem, RIMEX pioneered the first wheel produced using fully machined sections—the MES.
Available in wheel sizes from 20″ – 63″
Available in standard 5-piece assembly and as Double Gutter Service (DGS) / Integral Gutter Lock Ring (IGLR) assemblies
Each MES wheel is custom manufactured for precise fitment to the specified machine
