Removing Rubber from Old Rims.....

[Nick Goodall]

I've got to the point that i'm nearly out of B3 rims and rather then having to find any on Ebay etc, does anyone know of an easy way to get Tyres or just scraps of rubber from old rims?

I must have 100 sets with knackered tyres on so would really love to be able to use them again (including the Foams)!

In the old days we would boil them for a while in a pan, then pull off as much of the tyre as possible but would still have to file away the small bits of rubber left on the rim which took ages.... surely there must be an easier way??

Look forward to hearing what you all suggest....

Thanks.
