The last time I took a tubeless tyre off the rim, I put the jack on the tyre and jacked my car up and the seal between the tyre and rim "popped" quite easily.

This time it didn't go so easily so I made use of a gateway\doorway, using a piece of wood to take up the extra space.

I also discovered that the tubeless tyre had a tube. So much rust inside as well, perhaps it didn't seal very well and thats why they used a tube.

Look how those Dunlops have split!!!!

This looks like a far better method of dislodging the tyre off the rim than the way I've been doing it. Must give it a try. Thanks!
