Okay so basicly james (ghettostyle) blew out one of his tires. He gave me the tires he blew out plus the other 3 he had so i could put new tires on and balance them etc. The problem is that the sidewall of the tire seems to be glued onto the rim. I took a prybar to it and anything else i could think of. No luck though. Anyone know how to get it off? Ill take some pictures here in a little while.

I most not of phrased it right. The sidewall is glued to the rim.

I can do it at school or at cusins work. Both have everything i need to mount them.

It's not glued, just stuck to the wheel. You will need a tire machine to get that off, or a grinder with a cuting wheel, but don't cut into the rim.

If there is something on there that is black it is Bead Sealer and a tire machine will take it off no problem
