I have four split rim wheels that I swapped off of my 53 3800 panel; they have been lying around since 2000. They are still armed and dangerous with 20 year old air in the tires; must be inner tubes in them. Anyway, I want to clean up around the barn and get rid of these things but I'm afraid to move them. I would like to save the tires to plant potatoes in and scrap the rims.
Any ideas on how to safely disarm them? I thought about shooting them with a 30-30 in hopes of releasing the locking rims.
Any suggestions?
