I need some advice on the best way to remove rubber tires from steel wheels. I have access to several for the steel.

flatten them, and saw them off, best way that I have found. Unless the tire is still good!

A sawzall.

however you do it, just don't spend alot of time or money doing it, around here steel is still only 7 or 8 cents a pound, I know in some areas steel is 240 dollars a ton, about half of that around here.

put foot on brake and punch the gas - used to burn that rubber right off in high school.

Drill a hole in the side and then use a sawsall to cut around the rim

Sawzall across then cut the bead with a Harbor Freight cable cutter. No de beading etc. Removal time under 4 min.
