Re: Removing tires from rims

Post by RedScampi »

Old thread I know but this is good info. I bought a Marui car, was supposed to be a Ninja but is in fact a Coor's/Melling Stock car. The tires are heavily glued to the rims of course. :? I was going to toss them in the acetone but luckily the car came with two or three broken rims that i would have thrown away rather than ship so I threw the worst of the lot in the acetone bath to see what would happen. The wheel turned to goo... :roll: So, boiling or baking may be the way to do Marui wheels. I can't for sure say this extends to other Marui models but it makes sense.
