doubtful, i have the termist tm1s and they are actually welded in the middle. they are technically two piece rims since they started off with being two half barrel pieces but now that they're welded together, it would better if you just went with a diff set of rims for a wider setup.

I'm pretty sure the 2pc are welded so your answer is no.
