Need a little wheel and tire advice..

[MadH00ter]

Hey Guys, I've got a set of (I think factory) HPI Warlock wheels with Dirt Bonz. Currently they shake like mad because of a good soaking, even though I have dried them as much as possible.

I really like the Dirt Bonz and was wondering if they would fit on the Maximizer 1732 rims?

What is the least messy and effective way to get those tires off? I don't think I can do it the oven method at home, considering buying a used toaster oven off a local auction site, could that work?

What could I get at the hardware store to try to chemically get the tires off? Some kind of solvent?

I am also considering getting some Badlands at some point which I think I have read fit the maxxie's... right?

Just baked a set off yesterday. Glue came off the rim ok. Then boiled the tires and the glue just flaked off. You can use acetone, but it will definately ruin the foams and posibly the tires.

+1, ive baked em at 200 degrees for like 20 min. if they don't come off easily then put em in for a couple more minutes.

i was surprized how well it worked (advice to me came from b/r)
