Subject: RE: removing foam filled tires?


SW OH
We've worn out several sets on the bobcat and telehandler. The easiest way to get them off is keep driving until they come off on their own. If that's not an option, drive as far as you can, then start cutting. The foam itself and most of the tire cuts easy with a sharp knife. A sawzall can help, but when the object moves back and forth with the blade, it's useless. The worst part is the bead of the tire. There is lots of fine wire there. A worn whizz wheel on a die grinder is the best we've found. Keep cutting and prying the tire away from the wheel and keep cutting with whizz wheel.
