Dirty; every one of those methods are NOT "better than you found it". There simply isn't a fast and non-dirty way to remove tires from rims with basic tools. And breathing in smoke and wearing out cut-off wheels seems something that should be avoided in my judgment. So I cut the stem with some type of razor blade or remove the valve, then I put a 4 foot 2x6 or 2x8 piece of wood behind my back drivers side tire and back up onto the board that I placed the other end of it on top of the scrap tire that I put lying down on the ground, just before its rim edge (I even trimmed out the end of the board to match the round of the rim) - breaking the tire off its seat with relatively no effort and little cost, even after driving off the board, repositioning the scrap tire to get the rest of the tire off one side (especially on stubborn rusty rims), then flipping to the other side of the scrap tire and repeating. Getting the tire off the rim is the tricky part I guess, but with the one side of tire placed in the right area between the sides, it's relatively easy to pry up part of the tire over the rim and keep going or then cut the steel wires in this raised part and maybe even easily cut up the sidewall with a razor knife for some extra flexibility to get the one side of the tire off the rim. Then the other side of the tire can be pried out the same side of the one cut tire side. = no damage to rims, next to no wasted metal, little to no smoke inhalation, little to no wear on cutting tools, and probably took the same amount of time. What you think?

This is amazing. Just earlier today, I was removing tires from rims for the first time ever. I spent about an hour taking five tires off of five different rims, all aluminum, and all low profile tires. The bad part is, I spent at least 20 minutes wrestling with the first one is until I realized you need to take the tires off from the front of the rim base, not the back. After that, I spent between seven and five minutes on each tire afterwards. And that’s just using a crowbar and a large screwdriver, as well as some soapy water. I made $90 off of those five rims alone in. I call that a win.

Thanks for the tips Vince. I have a 4Runner and a 2X4 a crowbar and a long screw driver so I'm all set then for the next set of aluminum rims and tires I find. I screwed up on a set I found about a month ago. I brought them to a tire place that I trusted and had them do the removal. I figured they would do it for $20 or so and didn't even ask how much, I just left them overnight and told them I'll pick up and pay in the morning. Well $60 latter I had them separated. Got $80 for the rims.so only made $20 on the whole deal. Next time I do it myself.

I just use my hydraulic tyre removal machine I got for free, when I cleaned out a closed auto repair shop. As a full-time scrapper I regularly get up to 30 car wheels a month (far from all with aluminium rims); plus 4 extra (5, if any spare) every time I scrap an old car, as well as 2 (sometimes 3) from every trailer/caravan. The valves are brass, occasionally stainless steel. They are pyrolyzed, thus turned into pure brass. Internal parts are removed and sorted as iron or stainless. Wheel weights are zinc, older ones are lead. They are kept in separate fractions, melted (ferrous parts are removed), and cast into bars. Finally, in the beginning (12 years ago) I used your "third method". Works great on motorbike tyres too. Bicycle tyres are just pried off with a large flathead screwdriver.

Funny you put this out today - I just turned mine in today with tire on - they give less but it is far less hassle too. My second method is going to the used tire store and giving them the tire if they will take it off the rim - win win. My last method is to go to the same tire store with a crappy tire and slip the guy a fiverr and getting the tire taken off the rim - but then I have to figure out what to do with the tire. Depends on the day which approach works best. Happy Hunting.

The rims are the cheapest chrome mags from the 80's and rusted beyond polishing. Worthless. I may just cut all the way around the tire and just leave the beads. I'm just going to roll it on the rims anyway.

Flip the wheel, stand on the tire so it doesn't vibrate and rip through the tread and other bead. Peel the tire off the wheel and you're done. Once you get a rhythm down they take about minute. I did 53 the other day in an hour with one blade.

Method 3, using Sawzall with good blade, cut straight line on sidewall of tire through edge of rim until bead pops do both sides. Good blade will last 20-30 wheels.

So after watching many ways to remove tyres I realised that recip saw + grinder is the easiest - if you're scrapping the wheels that is...and we all are, right? Lots of methods about breaking beads involving driving up wooden beams or using bottle jack under towar or trolley jack & tiedown straps. But really, if you don't mind the small cut in the wheel, then breaking the bead is a waste of time 🙂 I had 6 wheels and kept putting the job off as I wasn't sure if it would be as easy as Thub says. But man, once I started, it took less than 5 mins per wheel. Yes it REALLY was that easy! First using an angle grinder slice through the bead (and a little rubber and rim of course) on one side then flip wheel over and repeat. My grinder is a big 230mm dia disc type...a cheap $100 Ozito but man I've used it heaps for scrapping and once it spins up it really slices thru stuff like butter! Then use recip saw (with short metal blade) to rip thru the tyre from the cut on one side to the cut on the other side...a simple straight line cut. Cutting the bead BEFORE cutting the tyre saves having to make those extra short tyre cuts along the circumference to peel back the tyre. Well it worked for me. Keep up the great work!

I remove & replace semi truck tires. Try swabbing your beads with soapy water. The tire will slide right off your rim with your tire iron.

The trick to getting tires off the rim with tire irons is to use lots of lube. My way to scrap rims is to break the bead with my hi lift jack and truck bumper and then pry the bead down enough to slip my sawzall between the rim and bead and cut the bead. I think your way is better as my way requires more aerobic exercise with the jack handle…

To break the bead, I use a 2x4 and my Toyota 4Runner. It works every time. 👌🏻

Nothin wrong with extra exercise though 🙂

What about the civil unrest method of forming a street protest, lighting a big pile of tires on fire, and picking up the rims the next day after they cool down?

I've seen a few ways, the guy who lived next to me for a while would drill into the tire then cut the bead with the reciprocating saw. I started using just the angle grinder to slice through the entire thing but I hate doing it and can't recommend it as easy. I've done a combination of all of them, and tires are one of my least favorite things to scrap but the payoff tends to be nice
