*LOL!!!*

Your last hint may have been the most valuable, and perhaps best attempted
in a hospital parking lot?

Thanks!

It can be done, but you'll need access to a compressor for remounting the
tires, some soapy water, a couple of tire irons, a large hammer...

... Band-Aids, splints, a tourniquet and some tranquilizers.

(I've actually done this myself, but it's labor intensive and a bit
dangerous.)
