Howdy Partners, For the last year or so I've been developing rust and corrosion on My back tires I believe the previous owner had used calcium chloride for obvious weight reasons.Underneath tons of paint I see bolts on the outside perimeter of the wheel can these rims be removed from the wheel and replaced,secondly what would be a good liquid replacement for the tires that doesn't display the corrosive qualities of calcium and guys (8N PHD's) please don't laugh because I'm being serious,I am wearing shoes, I live in a very nice house (with plumbing)and I don't meet girls at family reunions, Craig-

In MI tire dealers sell a product made fom sugar beets costs a little more but no corrosion, used anti freeze from garages works but not as heavy.

Craig, why would I laugh? If the rim failed, it would be no laughing matter at all. If the rust isn't too bad, you could put a wire wheel on a small, say 4" or 5" hand held grinder and take the loose rust off and then paint with POR15. Just remember the POR 15 is UV sensitive and will need top coating on the ouside of the rims. But not on the inside. Any holes could be welded up and ground smooth before painting. Or you could get them sandblasted and then painted, and adding hardener to the paint would make it more durable. Or you could get new rims. As for fluid, you could pump in a mix of water and a biodegradable antifreeze called "Sierra", in case a puncture causes a spill of fluid. Just make sure you use new tubes.
