And just to clarify, when I hear a concern for 'hurting' the wheel, I imagine physical damage that impairs the function of the wheel. If this clown is so cheap that he can't pay to have tires dismounted and has ALREADY tried to cut them off using an angle grinder and sawzall, I really doubt he's worried about cosmetics. GitRDun.

A tire shop screwed up my mom's benz wheels when she was getting new tires.

tried to use a grinder to cut through the steel cable, but takes too long and messy.
