I just want to know if i can take off the lip with the tire on or if that lip is whats holding the tire bead in. What confused me is when they said its a one piece with a separate lip. Made me think the lip is not where the bead sits. If that makes sense?

I meant when he said its a one piece wheel with a step lip. One piece wheel means one piece, but with a step lip makes me think the lip is another piece?
Otherwise isnt it obvious that if it were a one piece, why say its a one piece with a step lip. maybe im over thinking it lol
