[QUOTE="98 svt, post: 16815756, member: 183643"] I picked up a set of polished 17x9/10.5 AFS Cobra wheels and they have junk tires. I've gone to the tire shops 10s of times, but I wanted to try it at home just for shits and giggles. I got 1 tire off in about 20 minutes, but the next ones I think I could do in about 10 min/each. I took my Sawzall and cut the tire off the wheel, leaving about 2" of tire left around the wheel with the bead. Next, I grabbed my Dremel and a fiberglass cutoff wheel and cut through the 2 beads. The bonus is, the tire was now in 3 pieces and easily dropped into the trash barrel. It was a bit labor intensive, but I could do the other 3 tires. That said, I'll probably just take them to the tire shop and have them do it.:p I'm wanting to hear any ideas that have worked for you guys. There's a bunch of methods on YouTube, but I'm wondering what worked for you. I thought this may have some fun stories/ideas. [/QUOTE]
