    Gr8 tire hack my friend…… now I can do a good job on my old tires….. Re-using the rims will be a lot cheaper in general…..

    You don’t need to submerge. Just the fumes in a container with the tire with deactivate the tire glue. It may take a bit longer. I buy my acetone at the hardware store in 1 litre or 4 litre cans. Pour some into the bottom of an empty paint can (also cheap at Home Depot)and place a spacer, usually an old rim in the bottom. You can chuck 4 short course size tires in and they be good to go in 24 hrs.

      Does this work on glue that has been on the tires and rims for years, I just want the rims ?

      Can you reuse the tire ? I popped the foam in my drag wheel and if I could remove the tire and put a new foam I would like to use it again. Will the fumes make the tire go bad?

  • @IzziedeD

    if not reusing the tire, make a slash across it a couple places, the acetone will drain out before unmounting

    What if the wheel has sponge or foam between the tire and the rim ? The acetone will damage that fill , right ? So what would be the alternative?

    the easiest way i found that worked is puttin the wheel under hot water in the sink, you dont need boiling water, just really hot water, when it's hard to hold the hand in it for more than 3sec worked for me, much easier than boiling

      I boil mine, it works good but need to let them boil till the point they just fall off easily, otherwise you’ll be ripping the tires and leaving ca behind. Takes awhile but also gets em looking like new.

    Nice vid but who has 8 hrs Bro plus acetone destroys foams (stretches them beyond repair) ....... Heat oven to 350 degrees once temperatures reached install as many tires as you want or your oven holds 😂 once installed immediately turn oven off, set timer for 5-7 minutes, once timer goes off remove tires & with a towell or gloves simply push tires of the wheels...its that easy...
