Here's my cut from yesterday. I had to cut the tire off. The tire was so petrofied, it held up to the weight of a car with no valve stem in the wheel, therefore no air pressure in the tire.
This is the bands in the bead that were a *****. If the tire could have come off the rim in a regular manner I would not have done this. Fortunately I didn't touch or harm the rim.
