ON my 250 es big red i need to take the tires offthe rim to put some tubes in it and i have been trying to get those things off for weeks but i can't brake the beed and they won't seem to budge.Any help on an easy way to get them off would be very helpful thanxs.

 

have your freind stand on one side of the rim, and drive a truck over the other side of the tire, as close to the rim as possible, should tear it off...just make sure you let all the air out of the tire..and be carefull, it dangerous

 

Thanks alot for the help do u think that anothe 3 wheeler would work or i could have my fat as*friend stand on it and it will come right off ol
thanks and any other ideas would be helpful if this doesn't work

 

any tire shop should be able to break the bead for you

 

yea..Id say tire shop, u need at least a thousand lbs to break them

 

how much do u think it would cost at a tire shop to take it off Around where i live in derry N.H and if i get it off is it easy to put back on or not.

Thaks for all the help guys

 

i wouldnt pay them more than 10-15 bucks...even that would be kinda steep...omm, i think the only problem youll run into, is that unless you go to an atv/motorcycle place, theyre gonna use a car tire machine...which will work, but on the older style machines, its easy to bend a rim..(learned this on yfz450 rim...doh!!) the bead breaker on the new style machines, if it is the double roller style, will work...dont know if the one that presses against the side of the machine will work...probably, but i dont have one of those kinds here at work. if you can...bring it to an atv place....or be very carefull not to crush the rim with the jaw that comes up on the old machines.....hope i helped

 

the tire shouldnt be hard too hard to get onto the rim...just a couple of screwdrivers and a freind should help you. ---hey...remeber to check and see if that has a two peice rim...because you wont have a goo time tryin to take the tire off unless you take the rim apart...(found this out on my big red...doh!!)--if you see 8 nuts, its 2 peice rim. and if it is two peice, that o ring between them will likely be junk, so use some rtv, and spread it around real good...mines still holdin air like that

 

there the original tires and it has a one peice rim so thanks for the help but do u think driving a truck over it will be the best way to go in money wise.It should probably work right?Thanks again for the hellp.

 

I have about a three inch gash in the side of the tire and i have a slit on the part that goes closest to the rim do u think a tube will still hold it???
