Default RE: Remove old tires from rims


ORIGINAL: rollingball

Boil for 10 minutes, then dunk in ice water. CA will be no match for ths meathod. Just about flakes off the rim.
ohh ice water brainy, i usually just boil for a few, wait until the cracking of the CA slows down, grab some oven mits and pliers go to work on up, and then boil some more as nessasary, this gets um off well with few burns, i have had an issue with duratrax rims getting a little deformed, but still runable, i've done this with some AE and proline rims with no trouble i suspect the duratrax ones deformed because of how hard the plastic was.
