    I haven't tried anything yet, but what is the best way to remove spray paint from a tire. I'm talking the whole tire.

    Dismount, flip tire.

    Serious offloading with straddle rock crawling.

    Don't use paint thinner it will ruin the look of the tire.

    I'd try Easy-off oven cleaner. I use it when the tires on my hunting truck are brown from worn in mud. Gets the tires nice and black again. Spray on, let sit for a few minutes, then wash. Never had paint on tires, but it may work.
