I am trying to have my rims powder coated on my O2 GSXR 1000. I already have the tires taken off. But im not sure i want to pay to have the bearings pulled out. Does anyone know if i can rent a bearing puller that will work from a local parts suply store (autozone, checker etc...) any help would be great.

Just if anyone is interested my brother and I figured out how to get the bearings out, and were not telling how AHHAHAH. :P
JK I just used a long drift(punch) and hammerd them from the opposite side.
