I just baked my tires off the rims in attempt to salvage the tires. How do I remove the old CA so I can reglue them on new wheels?

Acetone (active ingredient in nail polish remover).

Don't get any on a foam inner liner - they just melt when contacted by acetone.

Just get new tires. Not worth the hassle, when new ones are so cheap.
Only for aluminum wheels is it feasable to remove old tires.

Soak them in acetone overnight and the glue will dissolve.

See my thread about "glueless rims". I hate tire glueing.
