tie top of tire to a tree and put a strap around the top of the insert and pull it slowly with the winch. use some dish soap water and it will pop right out.

I sqeezed them onto the floor with a shop lift, run a chain around the insert, and lifted them out with a forklift. 2 minutes a tire, NO hard work :****:

Don't suppose you're headed toward Grey Rock any time?

muddinmetal · Jun 28, 2012

Headed to Trussville or maybe Leeds the weekend after the 4th sometime...

Do those lock the beads like the magnesium run flats?

muddinmetal · Jun 28, 2012

I can't say forsur, but I'd guess yes, because the inner ring is the same diameter at the bead of the 16.5s.

How do you get them back in :dunno:

muddinmetal · Oct 18, 2012

I've never really thought about it... the military uses ratchet straps to squeeze them into a taco shape, then they stuff them into the tire, and finally you let the ratchet strap lose and put it out
