Actually... I was able to chisel through it.

But it certainly aint easy.

As for the tire machine... I wasn't thinking about pulling the tire, but that the machine might be able to hook under the ring (unbolted) and apply enough force upward to break the rust loose and lift the ring. Once the ring is broken free from the rest of the wheel I should be able to take it appart per the manual.

I don't know if a tire machine can be set up to work that way though... they are designed to apply pressure to the tire... not the rim.

Plus there is the cost issue... I might just get lots of practice with the saws-all / chisel method.
