jimgillaspy Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 (edited) So, hey everybody. i did some searching, both here and in the internets, and I can't find any article, video or topic discussing the effective removal of tires on the welded 14" semifloating wheels that came on the early 80's toyota RVs. I have a 18' Sunrader and I'm replacing the rear end with the full floating axle. But in order to get the rv home, I bought 6 new tires to put on the old wheels. Now I 'd like to pull them off and sell them ( they're regular car tires, oops) but everyone in my town says that in order to get them off, they're likely going to mess up the inner bead in doing so..., really! I mean, there has to be a technic to removing them without damaging them? Anyone have any info, opinion or a link to a video showing the process, carefulyl or not? Thanks! Edited July 26, 2017 by jimgillaspy Was hoping to reclassify the post to a better topic type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Somebody put them on. Call them and ask if they have any suggestions for getting them off. Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimgillaspy Posted July 26, 2017 Author Share Posted July 26, 2017 Fair enough, it involves calling an auto shop that used a tire shop, but I might need to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek up North Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 You might have to muscle them off the old fashioned way. By hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
