Look at the risks. Look at the benefits. If something went wrong it could go very wrong, with a tire off the rim at speed. Probability of that happening is unknown but people have laid out reasons why it might, The benefit is less time and aggravation in tire changes. Doesn't justify the potential risk.

I'd get new rims.

I'd like to see a thread with all the tips and tricks. I still use baby powder and a tire jack.
