I am restoring a 1962 original and I want to sandblast the rims but I can't get the rear tires off. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I took them to 6 tractor and tire stores, non of which could get them off without destroying the tire. I believe they are the original tires so I don't really want to ruin them.
Thanks. I went back out today and found a shop called Portos Tire in New Haven Connecticut they took both tires off flawlessly for 5$ each. They are very old-school tire shop and I would recommend them to everyone. thanks everyone for your suggestion!

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but if 6 tire shops couldn't do it it's doubtful that any of us will be of much help. They must really be stuck.

The shops didn't try 3 looked at them and turned us down, one wanted to much, and the three( including the only that wanted to much) couldn't guarantee that the rim or tire wouldn't be damaged.

Either take the chance..... or blast the rim and paint it with the tire on. A sandblaster isn't going to hurt the tire. Done it many times. Your call. We can't come break them down for you. FWIW, Miller Tire now offers an original replacement tire....... Miller Tire. |

Can't be scared.
They "will" come off, or as Jonathan mentioned. Blast them with the tires on and tape them off and paint. Done it numerous times.

Done it by myself with an empty 15" rim, a bottle jack and a pickup truck.
And a 12 pack. |

I have one of these tire changers. It's a piece of junk Harbor Freight tool but it beats spending $10 in gas, plus labor, to go to town everytime I need a tire on or off. It hasn't let me down yet.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
