what's the easiest savage way to remove tires from wheels without damaging the wheel. need to strip some tires of the wheels to ship. dont want to pay some stupid shop to do it.

i searched FSM, but didn't find the words "savage" or "crescent wrench" or "damage"

I'd have to agree with Jerod on this one! Or an hour and a couple of tire spoons. How big are they?

 

[retrofive]

Is a tire spoon like a crescent wrench?

They are just the stocker 265/75/16's or whatever on the 4r stock alloys. (not my current set, the extra set with bad tires)

I did some 15's with a craftsman breaker bar and a big crescent wrench. Wasn't fun but was wheeling the next day!

Take 'em to Jessie's house! I'd bust them off the bead running them over with my cruiser, then cut the beads with the sawzall. Hell once the bead is popped just saw all the way across(at Jessie's house).

Put them under side of truck , under frame. Use highlift Jack to break beads, tire iron and a hammer

Mounting/dismounting tires by hand sucks...

 

[retrofive]

I'll think about those later, now i'm thinking.....

Did I happen to mention how much mounting and dismounting tires by hand sucks?

That pic is actually mounting the tire... And Brittney wasn't helping with that. She was helping me break the bead with a Hi-Lift on the dismount. That was when I almost broke my jaw.
