  3. Put a 1/2 inch of acetone in the bottom of the can
  4. place all your burned up rims/tires in the can, but not in the acetone
  5. seal the lid
  6. Let sit for 3-4 days
  7. remove tires, peel right off
  8. If after 4 days they still don't just slip right off, put them back in and check every day.

I have used this method on tires with stripped rims so I could reuse the tire as well.

Awesome, thanks!

Banshee, I'll look into those Proline suburbs, thanks also.
