[QUOTE="OldMachinist, post: 27367, member: 437"] There are two ways I've heard of to remove a foam filled tire. Using a sawzall and lots of labor or put them in a fire and burn them off. Of course burning tires is illegal in the USA and I would never recommend it. To do it with a sawzall you have to start by cutting it in three or four places nearly down to the rim and then spread the cuts and start working the blade around the diameter of the rim to remove the sections. Then using a die grinder and carbide burr carefully cut the tire bead in a couple of places. Hopefully they coated the rim with release agent before foaming and it will come off. Expect to spend several hours per tire and go through many blades. I've heard that there are places that will recap a foam filled tire right on the rim. [/QUOTE]
