unless you are a glutton for punishment, find a heavy truck tire shop in your town. look for earth mover tires. heat, oil or candle wax the rim bolts. remove bolts. take rims to shop. have shop remove tires and pickup rims. the shop wont waste time heating and gingerly removing the wheel nuts so do that yourself. i watched bob stahl break down one on my command car. it took 1 hour of beating. we smartly decided to take the other four to a heavy truck shop. drank cold beer. ate lunch. paid cash. picked up disassembled rims. marked rims ahead of time so not to mix up halves. rims once painted and cleaned will operate as the website states. the first time after 40 years is a bitch.
