Default RE: Remove old tires from rims


ORIGINAL: mnrcaerobat

Is there a good way to get old tires off of the rims? These were CA'ed on.
You can boil them or bake them in the oven. It's been so long since I did this I'm not sure of the temps. A search should find you more results. Both methods are kind of a hit or miss type deal as sometimes it works great and sometimes it dont. I just buy new when I need tires or rims as its a lot less trouble. I've also heard you could soak the tires and rims in acetone and it would break down the glue, never tried it though.
