tire removal
I had the tires removed from my 16 inch CMP rims today.Despite using extreme measures ( backhoe, torches etc) in the past and a generous offer from a fellow enthusiast to use his 50 ton press to push off the tires,I used a different method.
A friend of a mobile tractor mechanic and tire repair guy. He used a one inch air ratchet gun on the nuts and a heavy duty hydraulic bead breaker on the tires. Had all four off in about 1.5 - 2 hours. Cost $100 what a deal!! Will sandblast and then maybe turn them to clean smooth metal before painting.
