I've had my fluid filled tires off before, so I know the precautions. This coming weekend or soonafter I need to address my left tire. It is leaking fluid bad and the rim is fairly rusted. My right one has a little rust near the valve stem and I'm not sure what I'll do about that yet. anyways, for the left one. I plan to remove the tire, drain the fluid and then... well I dunno. Is it possiblt to remove the tire without special machines? If I bend the rim, or break it in the event its too far gone, where do I get anouther rim? I've seen them online for around 80$, but I dunno about shipping something that big. How do I identify the rim (double bevel or whatver, or lipped or whatever, heh). Ideally I'd like to remove the tire, clean the rim, repaint it and if I need to get a new tube (where is the cheapest place for them as well?). I dont wanna spend the money, but I dont want my left tire breaking and killing me either. What does a used rim and/or tire with decent tread left go for? My tires have about 75% tread, but they are weather checked something fierce. What color where the rims originally, right now they are like an off white color. Not sure after seeing this damage, if I want to put Calcium Choride back in them =( Maybe if I dont feel like messing with it, I'll drain the fluid and just fill it with air and see if it leaks, if It dont, just let it go.
