get a 3 inch pipe. sharpen the edge. then put it in a press, but make sure you stretch one bead over the pipe. center it before you apply pressure. it should cut. try a junk tire set first. you could also make a centering die with a 2.2 wheel and some pvc to make up the dia spacing. you wont have a bead for the 3.0 part but you can still glue it. or you can cut sections of the old bead and re-attach to the new circumference. |

So use glue on wheels and cut the sidewall to fit. I bet you could cut right outside the 2.2 bead and the sidewall would stretch perfectly onto a 3" bead.
