In the oven.
Preheat 200 degrees place tyres on tray leave for 5 mins turn over and do the same 5mins.
Get the oven gloves and push the wheel out.
Saves the inserts aswell.
So much quicker than acetone.

Just to echo an earlier comment, cut the tyres off first and only leave the bead. Keeps your inserts perfect and should reduce the time the glue takes to soften also.

I just stick them in a tupperware type lunchbox for 24 hours, take the rubber off then stick them back in for 5-6 hours and all the old glue has run off and you are ready to go.
