Tire removal?

Got into a car accident and car was totaled. It's at the tow truck place and I need to give them the title so they can scrap it. I recently bought new tires for the car and want to take them off and replace the newer ones with old ones before it's no longer mine (tow truck company is fine with this). Does anyone know someone who can take off the old tires and put on different ones? Need it done today no later than 3:00pm. Car is in Maplewood.


Sorry for you accident and its severity. Can only tell you that sometimes the tires are also damaged and may not be worth salvaging. It may pay you to have some one check their condition.


Good luck


If you have a spare tire all you'd need was 3 more compact spares with the same bolt pattern. Any junkyard should have these and they'd be $10-30 each (this is for the compact spare tire which is a wheel and tire, much easier than pulling the wheel off the car, pulling the tires off the wheel, putting old tires on the wheel putting the wheel back on the car)


I assume you're trying to salvage some value out of the NEW tires. Tell ins comp about how old they are and much they cost. Some times you can get reimbursement for something like this. I once asked as a hypothetical and got a surprising answer.
