With my Dodge combat rims I loosen the nuts until
they are just flush with the top of the bolt than
use enough air to seperate the two halves of the
rim,
which for the ones I have were rusted solid
together. After this let the air out and seperate

the tire from the rim than unbolt the two halves.

I wasted a lot of time trying the seperate the two

pieces before I tried it this way.
Are combat rims available for the M35 Six hole
9.00X 20.00 tires.
