Maybe the problem was that he's a fireman, and not a fire fighter. j/k Roc, love to the FF's

The higer temps could cause more smoke.

I bake my tires at 250-275 for about 15-20 minutes. When I pulled them out, I just pressed down on the edge of the tire, and it came free..


Rocco was baking them at 425f-450f I believe :eek: I wonder why they were smoking????

you would think being a fire fighter he would have known at what temp rubber melts and starts on fire but i guess you learn something new everyday. Just stay out of the town he's in if your gonna have a fire lol jk.

I did the oven method this past weekend.
preheat the oven to 275F
toss the tires directly on the rack in the oven for 10 mins
take tires out of oven with hot mits
using the hot mits tear the tires off the rims, they come off really easy
I suggest trying to get the old excess glue off the tire while it's still warm, it's a pain once it dries on there again.

oh, and the house only stank for about 30 mins, and it wasn't even that bad.

nope, she never said anything. Seriously the smell cleared out on it's own in about 30 mins, no joke.

I think the really stinky stories we heard about was people who had the temp too high!

Jeez make one mistake and ya never hear the end of it.... The compound the zombie maxx tires are made of never had a problem with my higher than normal baking technique, nor did my bow-ties. I think the response rubber is an extremley soft compound which made its ignithon (sp) much lower.... now leave me alone ya bunch bastages! LOL!!!!!!
Dont mess wit my sig Line tune!
