Depends on if you want to keep the rim or scraping it. Scraping it go right to the bead with an angle grinder

My garbage man said if the tire is cut in half they will take them, so it is a half moon. I will cut the side wall with a utility knife and then take the tread and use a skill saw wwith an old carbide blade on it and it and fold it in and cut it next to the fold and cut it into three or four pieces, I have never had a problem getting rid of four or five, also I also take the beads and use them in the bottom of a brush pile to help it burn and then sell the wire with my shred, the fire takes the temper out of the wire so it folds up and put them in a microwave shell or fridge. Make sure to use your PPE. Keep up the great videos and God bless you and your family.

i just go straight for the bead with grinder, then cut tire in half with sawsall. done in 2 minutes

Thank you I'm going to ask my dumpster company if I can cut them up excellent video sir thank you for sharing this six stars brother

If you cut the side wall of the tire into a flower shape, you can invert the tire and turn it into a flowerpot shaped like a flower. That you can sell for more than scrap.

I have cut up loads of tires for the fire. I use a sharp knife and soapy water. easier and faster than a saw. Even big Land Rover tires. sidewall is just rubber.

I think the storage building owners are wise to that old trick :-)

Okie, thank you for hearing my request and the additional help. Trash svc has told me its fine if i cut up the tire.

Love seeing a different way of doin things! Awesome video my friend!

Good info!

Awesome video thanks for sharing

Good video and info

Thanks for sharing

I just use a SawzAll and split the tire in half cutting the front and back of the rim bead.

Cool!

I do it the same exact way, but I don't cut the entire way around. I cut around the outside and inside only about a third of the way. Just enough so I can get the grinder in sideways and work comfortably. Then I cut sideways only on one side and tuck that center piece under so it's out of the way In my county, there's a mosquito control program where they come pick the tires up for free. I had 45 tires kicking around last year and they came and got them after I took them off the rims. I called BJ's wholesale before I found out about this program and they said they will take any tire for $1.40 each.

Why not go straight to the bead ?

If you take the valve stem out and run over the tire slowly with your truck on the edge with the wheel/tire laying flat it will break the bead and then you can use soap and tire irons from harbor freight to remove the tire from the wheel without cutting anything at all. After you break bead on one side turn the tire over and break the bead on the other side. You did a good job but it takes a very long time to cut with a jig saw and angle grinder.

I just cut the wheel rim into the bead and halfway up the tyre wall then just remove tyre with big screwdriver or tyre levers takes less than 1 min to do 1 wheel.

You could always grow potatos in them

I take a sawzall with a wood blade and cut it on the tires and it takes like a minute per side

If you have different sizes may be a market for tower small garden, strawberries or flowers with outer peace?

What's the scrap value of a steel wheel?

Take out that valve stem,usually brass. 👍

that's slower than the seven year itch

just my opinion but I don't think it's worth all the work and electric to get the rim out,,
