In order for you to get the tire interior you need to start with deflating the tire by simply removing the " Kanyuto " for fast discharging of air content. Next using the desired size of ripping bar, slowly lift the inner edges of the tire until it loosen up and easy for you to pull out the interior. Third by simply using you fingers check the inner tire and feel the surface if there are presence of spikes and use the plier to removed it.

Ninth inflate the interior to make sure that no more presence of bubbles as you submerge it into the water. Tenth, deflate the interior before returning it inside of the tire.
