I have a shot at getting some 9c1 rims from the u-pull it yard. Problem is, they are still on the car with the tires. They want $7 for each rim, but I would also have to spring 15-20$ for each tire. My question is if it's easy or practical to remove the tire while there to save about $80. Once it is flat, is it pretty easy to pop off the rim? Any help is appreciated.

the hard part is breaking the bead loose.
without knowledge and the tools, doubtful.
you could take a tire mallet, couple of tire bars and some spray soap and do the job if you knew how or find somebody who does.

Boy, I didn't think this thread would get much response. Thanks for all the ideas.
be REAL careful you do not cut the wheel w/ a sawzall. bring a pry bar to LIFT the bead up when cutting close to the wheel.
ALso, using a sawzall or cutoff wheel to remove a tire WILL make a cloud of smoke that looks and smells like a mile long burnout.
