It SHOULD be able to be dismounted and remounted. I said SHOULD. If the tire has been on the rim for 30+/- years, allowed to be flat for many years, left in the sun many years, has a lot of weather checking etc. it might not be a good purchase. That said, I have had three bad experiences with old tractor tires being dismounted. The first two were a tire dealer (not name brand). I had taken 5 tires to be dismounted. 3 were scrap 2 of which were on desent original Ford rims. 2 tires were nice and had matching tread. I wanted to clean the original rims and then remount the pair of matching tires. When I went to pick up my tires, one of the "keepers" had a broken bead. I mean the steel wire was completely destroyed. Dealer said it was that it was rusty and broken. NOT! He let it sit out in the weather a week after he, or his help, broke it. Another time, later, I watched his pothead help run the pneumatic bead braker knock the bead off the rim and kept the pressure on and drive the steel right through the side wall. His answer? Rotten rubber. I have never been back. 2nd dealer: I had bought a nice pair of tires on Craigslist but on rims useless to me. Their tractor tire specialist clamped a bead breaker onto the rim a a spot where the rim was slightly bent. Instead of pushing the bead off the rim it drove through the sidewall above the bead. I have never been back. I have found a 3 dealer. They have been GREAT!

Today's Featured Article - The 8N and the Fox - by Zane Sherman. Dec. 13 1998, Renfroe, Alabama. Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit
