If you have no use for the old tyres , cut them off with a cut off wheel on a grinder .
Crude & effective, but potentially hazardous to your health! A British friend of mine told me about a HMV club member who cut through several old truck tyres. He got quite ill for a long period, only later he learned this was due to heavy metal poisoning. Apparently heavy metals like cadmium were present in 1940's rubber tyres.

When the time comes to replace the 6.00-16 bar treads on my F15A I'll take them to a truck tyre shop and pay the pro's to tackle it while I drink my complimentary cup of coffee
