The tire is still good to use if it’s round on top right?
Yeah, just get some of that foam with which they fill forklift and construction equipment tires. You may need to put some duct tape on the gash in the side of the tire if it is oozing out at first.
i should have done this instead of trying to put the spare on without an impact drill.Lugs are finally off. Now to get the tire off
Danger: don't remove the lugs. It is enough to just remove the lug nuts.
I had a broken lug once and they charged me more than I thought it would cost to replace it.
Just to be clear, this was a joke. If you have a gash in the sidewall there is no fix that is safe...
Do you have a space heater you can maybe blow on it sounds like the darn thing is froze on.
Come on, be honest. What did you think when you read those words?Things getting rough when people start trash talking wordle picks.

I didn't click on that one LOL. So I have no idea what that one was.
I once got a flat on my old Ford Ranger on a Chicago suburbs freeway. I was struggling to get the tire off when one of those State highway helper trucks showed up. He pulled out his lug wrench and couldn't get the lug nut to turn. We went back to my X lug wrench so we could both get on it - it wouldn't budge. So then we got future Mrs. Velo out of the cab so she could stand on the lug wrench while helper guy and I both pushed and pulled on the wrench and it finally broke free. It bent my lug wrench but we got that damned thing. I had a word after that with the shop that air wrenched my aluminum wheels on that thing.
Took two hits from the AAA guys persuader and it popped off. He used his mobile ugga dugga to get the spare on for me. 5 stars!
Had my winter tires/rims mounted by mobile service dudes with a tire service van. Was happy to see he was tightening down the nuts with a torque wrench.
The only way I've ever gotten the lugnuts off is standing on the wrench and hopping up and down, but ive had some rust boxes where they were tough to persuade off.

My old advisor cleared through the bureaucracy yesterday to get the TAs and I formally assigned.
