If it's that big of an issue, dismount them with the oven or acetone method...not that big of a deal.
I'm not sure if you're defending or attacking Beadlocks from that post... but either way
Rims are $9.00x2 = $18.00
Tires are $19.00x2 = $38.00
= Saving 18 bucks PER set of tires. Lifetime on my beadlocks: about 10 sets of bald tires (before the pins that hold the rubber started to round out. A bead pop or two? That's the point. that 14-20 whopping bucks just became $180.00 in savings.
