MOUNTING SLICKS
 
I HAVE 14/32/15 GOOD YEARS. CANNOT GET THEM TO RELEASE FROM THE RIM. HAD THEM TO 5 TIRE STORES,NO LUCK.. KNOW ANY WAY OR TRICKS TO BREAK THE BEADS?

Take the bead screws out ? :roll: :roll: :D :D :D :D :D :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: Just goofing !! :D :D
Did the tire shops try breaking the bead WITH air in the tire ? No pressure allows that floppy sidewall to collapse before enough force can be applied to bust the bead.

I cut the side wall and carfully used a die grinder with a small bit to cut the bead--- better than beating it with a hammer :)

those must be some strong sidewalls, mine fall off when they dont have air.
