getting it vulcanized means that it gets heated up to the point that the rubber melts back together again.... like when it was being made

there are some shops that do this

i only recommend this because the bead and inner plies of the tire are fine, if they were compromised/torn/cut in any way, it would be unsafe to use

Alot of places won't touch that.  So, find a hole in the wall place that don't ask questions.  And tell them it's strictly for off-road use only.  If you tell them that it will see hwy use, they might touch it.  I personally would get it vulcanized, and then mount them up on some bead locks, and run the piss out of them.  Or if you can find a used one to match the other three, and use that one as a spare.
