Disassembling a 2 / 3 pc wheel...

Is the face sealed as well? Would you be able to leave the tires mounted and just unbolt the face?

The face isn't sealed, but I'd unmount the tires either way. I'm sure the face provides some strength, and with the tire mounted up and full of air you may have a hard time getting the face on and off. Never tried it that way, since the wheels I've assembled had the tires off already. I've only done 1 set though, so I'm not an expert by any means.
