In Reply to: Foam filled tires posted by George Marsh on November 10, 2013 at 05:13:42:
Foam filled tires are for SLOW moving heavy equipment that will be traveling over sharp broken rock, etc. . NOT for highway usage! And when the tire is worn past it's serviceable life (20% or more cord showing) the tire AND rim have to be thrown away. The only way to remove the tire (and foam) is to burn it off.

I worked for a Mining company that foamed a lot of their heavy equipment tires. We tried burning a tire with foam off of a $5000. heavy equip. rim and all it did was make a big mess and took all the temper out of the rim (which we had to throw away). Not to mention the STENCH caused by the burning rubber & foam.
