Maybe I didn't have the right blade, but cutting a tire was a definite
chore, and I ruined several blades.  If I was going to do that again, I
would probably find a way to clamp a piece of wood on both sides, as
otherwise the tire tends to grab the blade and just shake back and forth,
instead of cutting.

A big hole saw worked better for me.
