[AT] Cutting Tractor Tires

Sat Jun 10 12:31:44 PDT 2006

Has anyone on this great list had experience cutting tractor tires? I have an IH 10-20 and I've removed the steel lugs from the rear as they tear up the trailer during transport and some shows wont let you ride around with steel lugs. I want to trim the side walls off of some old rubber tractor tires and carriage bolt them to the steel rims. I remember cutting an old tractor tire with a sawzall to get it off the rim and that sawzall shook me to hell and back. Is there an easier way to slice a tire? Thanks for your help!
