I reuse rims, I cut away old tire next to the edge where its glued and then using a new paint tin add about a litre of Acetone then place all 4 rims in and tap the lid down with hammer. Next morning old tire pulls off the rim with out hesitation then put rims back in and reseal and shake tin up and do that every now and then and find later that day the rim is all clean and no glue, The rims then see the washing machine in with the Darks and come out the wash like they come out the packet...lol ( just dont let the wife see you dropping the rims in the washing machine )
