Remember you have to get the bead down a ways before the ring will give you anything. I need pics to give you any better advice than that, not sure what you mean by stretch ring.

Well, a split rim without the split. I found the term stretch ring on HAMB becaus the lock ring is actually an oval

I'm so loving sorry your first split rim experience is with these.
ok solid ring/semi drop wheels are unicorn poo poo and the biggest oval office on the planet. You're going to need some thin prybars (or make do with found/makeshift tools), anything meant for automotive use is going to be too thick. There are special bars for split rims that would be suuuuuuuuper handy though. You're going to need to get the bead pushed down as far as you can go so you've got enough room. I'd recommend using a hilift or something, hammer the plate of the jack under the ring flange and then try to tlift something heavy, should get the tire mobile. there will be a bit of a drop center just below the seat that gives you exactly enough room to get the ring off, but only if it's in exactly the right position. you'll have to fiddlefuck with it for a bit. You will say gently caress. There may be blood.

If you get them on, make sure those 3 are on the rear. Air them up to 20 psi, then bolt them on and finish airing up. that way if one lets go, it just hits the other tire.


one more thing, DO NOT put too much prying force on that ring, it's painfully easy to wreck the wheel that way with these stupid fuckin things. if it's not moving under moderate force there's not enough room and you need to try another angle.
