Boiling Tires Off Rims (pic included)
<div class="usertext-body"><div class="md">
Hey there RCU,
Tried to boil off my tires today but to no avail. I took them out after 5, 10, and 15 minutes of boiling, tried to peel them off, and still nothing. All the guides I've heard say to boil for 5-10 minutes and they should come clean off.</p>
Unfortunately that didn't happen for me. Instead, the picture below shows what resulted. Basically, I just ended up ripping my tire =( I don't need to save the tire (I'm actually trying to replace them), but I do need the rims, and it sort of looks like the residues from the tires ripping will prevent me from being able to glue another tire on.</p>
Any tips/tricks/hints/stories of boiling off your tires? Thoughts as well?
Thanks!</p></div></div>
