I'm thinking that the instructions are in the service manual. Taking them apart isn't the issue though. The real issue as we said is your safety and the safety of those around you when you air them up. That is when all too many people have been killed or seriously injured since the start of split rims. These aren't as bad as actual split rims but you don't know if someone ever damaged them in the past causing an issue with them now.

I've got a bunch of 20 inchers out here off the cab donor chassis for my build and it was a real challenge to get one apart so i can use it as a base for a piece of equipment I want to build.
