Honestly this sounds even stupider but if you are really looking to save $30 then you need to put your wheels/tires in the oven and bake them. The baking breaks down the glue and allows you to remove the tires from the wheels. But you must do it hot in order for it to work so make sure that you have a good pair of gloves.

Bake at 350 for abot 8-12 minutes and prepare to have some fun. It is not worth it IMHO. Just buy new wheels
 
Thanks dude but I mean how is it possible to remove wheels from the car?
I bought new tyres and wheels and I need to take off stock tyres.
 
Re: reply

5/16 socket just hold the tires with your hands they should come off really easy just dont loose the pin that holds the hex
 
LOL yah i got 2 wheels off and then roto zipped the rims on the other 2 cause i didnt know about the wrong way thread...Live and learn lol
 
Thank you,at last I did it.That was easy but forced me to buy a socket wrench
 
Mine came with all right hand threads. I don't think they use the reverse threads any more. It doesn't seem that important. Mine have NEVER loosened on their own.

Same here - I notied though that on the back of the nut washer there are some teeth that actually bite into the rim as you tighten.

When I pulled them the first time, I thought I rounded the nut, as it had that sane kind of sound - lol

Uh Oh, sory, you said savage XL, I just have the savage X
