Yesterday i took the War dept.'s Durango in to get new shoes since the Good For A Year broke a belt and it was driving like a clown car. anyway where i get tires is a little low over head tire shop out in the boonies they work in and unheated shop they have four tire machines and four balancers and god only knows how many floor jacks . You pullin and two guys go to work removing all four tires . Well just before i was pulled in a guy with a 1500 dodge 4x4 was getting four new tires . Looked like a NASCAR pit stop till his tires got to the tire machine . No matter how they tried to break the bead they would not break down . So here comes the tire hammers and wedges , still they will not break down . So they rool them out of the shop and fire up and old case backhoe and try the stabilizers , Nope that won't do it . Then they bring them back in and take a sawzall to the side walls and cut the tires off the rims , next comes the die grinders with cut off wheels and they cut the bead wires and still the bead will not let go of the rim I am standing there watching and Jimmy says to me ya know thirty five years in the tire business and i have never seen this before . Whoever installed them tires must have super glued them on the rims .Once the bead wire was gut they had to use air chisels to peal the rest off.
