Those are not "inserts". It's paint, while the rest of the wheel is polished aluminum, and all of it clear-coated.Anyone know how to remove the wheel inserts on the all new 2019 Ram 1500 limited 22 inch wheels? I would like to get them painted to match my Delmonico Pearl red color of my truck.

Ok Great thank for the info.Those are not "inserts". It's paint, while the rest of the wheel is polished aluminum, and all of it clear-coated.
Any body shop or wheel place can strip and paint or powder-coat them any color your heart desires.
Cheers,

I had a set of these wheels and i dont remember seeing any screws on the back side of the wheel. my mind would be blown if this is true lol i wanna see the wheels with the insert removed.I read on a different forum there are 3 torx screws on the backside of the wheel that hold the inserts on and you have to remove the wheel to get to them. Didn’t see any pictures and haven’t had a chance to check things out so it’s completely unverified.
Polished wheels with painted inserts, they are not removable. 1) I've removed my wheels and there's nothing there to remove them. 2) no gap around the edges 3) someone would've done it already if they were removeable.That doesn't seem right to me. The option sheet for my truck literally says "22X9.0 Polish/Painted Whls w/Inserts" - So yes, they are painted, but they should be painted inserts. Now how easy they are to take off (if at all) is a different discussion, lol.
Watching and waiting for photos of this!Polished wheels with painted inserts, they are not removable. 1) I've removed my wheels and there's nothing there to remove them. 2) no gap around the edges 3) someone would've done it already if they were removeable.
not meant to is for guys that like to pay to have everything done for them. What would be the point in having a forum if everything that was not meant to be removed/changed was left alone?You can remove them, but they are not meant to be removed. Like Mike mentioned, it’s easier to just have a shop tape and spray- There’s a high chance you will break or bend the inserts when removing them
