Glued tires???

[BrahmaBullSQ]

After you glue tires to the rims... how do you get them off without ruining the tire and tearing it to shredds? Any help is appreciated. Just thought that you people have been in the hobby more than me. Thanks.

i herd that SHOUTING is bad for ears, so dont SHOUT, but yes boiling tires duz work . when u boil your tires but some cooking salt in the water , to raise the boiling temp up a little..

Acetone will also remove the tires from rims. Place some drops of it around the bead and let it sit until it is evaporated. It may take a few applications, but it takes them off cleanly. You can get a quart of acetone for about $5 at walmart or home depot etc...

I think that acetone might damage some of the chromed style rims....not sure though.
