Tire Hammer & Wedges
Personally I have never found the need to use any wedges when removing a tire from a CMP wheel. Once the tire starts to separate from the wheel it does not want to go back in.
I prefer removing these wheels and tires in the colder weather for two reasons:
A) You work up a fair sweat doing it.
B) You can wear heavier / full length clothing to protect your entire body in the event that a piece does break off the hammer.
I also split field stone on occasion and every once in a while a piece comes off the stone that sounds like a 0.22 firing off.
Long story short - you have to use caution and common sense when performing any activity to ensure your own safety and the safety of those around you.
