Unglue Tires?
Just a quick question, I need to unglue my tires off the rims, what is the best way to go about doing this? Boiling them? I need to "save" the tires, don't care so much about the rims. Thanks

Don't even try that .... Nice way to set your house on fire.
I've never tried it myself but I hear placing the tires in a covered jar with a little acetone does the trick.

Around 300 degrees in the oven for 10-15 minutes does the trick. If the tires doesn't come loose easily just bake them a little more, You can use the inserts again if you like too, even the tires if you want to.

Never tried it but you can buy CA de-bonder from your LHS, that would be a nice safe way to do it. I have used de-bonder on airplane stuff for over ten years.
