I had 4 new tires put on my Jeep GC, but I forgot to remove the large sticker-
labels that are on the tread of each tire and the installer didn't bother
either.

I attempted to peel them off but that proved impossible since I'd already
driven a bit on them, and they come off in tiny pieces.

Is there any simple method that will get them off quickly? Or I am simply
stuck until they wear out from driving?

Thanks.

I'm sure if you keep driving they will eventually be pulled off.

Some people worry about the stupidest things !!!!

Take the car back to the installer. Show them the labels and tell
them you refuse to pay for the tires because they did a lousy
installation and now this sticker paper is going to litter of the
highways and you are an avid member of the Anti-Litter League of
America, a staunch Republican, personal friend of VP Dick Cheney, and
an active member of the NRA, and (*optional), you are packing a high
powered, loaded #___ caliber, rifle in the trunk.

That should take care of this problem for you..........

What does this say about ppl who respond then?

I know this may come as a shock to you, but there are areas in the world
where tire theft is a problem.
