Can you cut a tire with a chainsaw?

A chainsaw can be a useful tool for cutting up rubber tires into smaller chunks so they're easier to transport for disposal. Use caution when you're using a chainsaw and slice all the way through the rubber without stopping the blade so it doesn't get stuck. However, don't use a chainsaw to remove a tire from the rim. You could easily damage the rim, or worse, injure yourself. Instead, use a small, sharp knife such as a utility knife or a retractable box cutter. That way, you can more precisely cut the tire and avoid potentially injuring yourself.
