| Tools for narrowing tires.
I did a search, but didn't come up with anything. What does everyone use to narrow tires? Just a regular pair scizzorz? I need to un-widen some 2.2 claw dawgs for a cherokee prerunner, but dont know where to start. Thanks in advance.

regular scissors wont work. Use the curved lexan scissors they work like a charm

A dremel with a cut-off wheel mounted in a fixture to hold it perpendicular to your work surface. Set the height of the cutter and rotate the tire along it with the tool running.

Nail Clippers, a butter knife and a map gas torch... Just messing. I've used heavy duty scissors and they work very well, just need to have a very steady hand. If you can trace a line where you want to cut, it'll make it a lot easier. |

I just narrowed a set of Mashers with some HD scissors and glued them together with Lost Tire glue. It's my first time using that glue and I like a lot better tghan the IC2000 I've used in the past.
