Removing tyres

[maurice91]

Hi,how can i remove my old tyres of rims,cheers maurice.

acetone in a air tight tub

Buy some Pure acetone off ebay(or a local supplier), get a air tight sandwich box(i use a paint tin), pour some into the tin, it doesn't have to cover the tyres as the fumes do the work for you, seal the lid & leave for a few days, open & peal the tyres off, job done
Wear some gloves when doing it

Another way is to put them in the oven at180c for 8 mins. Then just crack the tyres off. Good if your in a hurry, BUT will get you moaned at for using HER oven to do non cooking things that will almost certainly mean the end of the universe. And will make a bit of a smell. Also discolours your wheels a bit. I use both. Acetone normally, oven in a hurry. And man up.

I was told about the boiling method recently. Bring a pan to the boil, drop the wheels in, 20mins both sides, drop in to cold water, remove tyres. If some bits are stubborn do as much as you can then drop them back in for a few more minutes. Use an old pan as the wheel dye can come out and the old glue can stick to the pan sides.
