Let’s look at the positives here. They now have a QUICK method to remove a tire from a rim. Shit, they can even do it while the wheel is still on the vehicle/trailer. Great life hack, and under five minutes at that!

Well, unless you don't mind having a window broken and some exterior damage... sure, I guess 🤷.

You just need to take the axle off first. Easy peasy.

In all honesty, this is a technique that works. It won't inflate the tire properly, it's intended for situations like getting tires fitted to tractor rims, and it doesn't use gasoline or oil. The main problems were the fact that they used oil, and a whole quart of it at that

There must have been something more than just oil in whatever he dumped in there.

it almost looked like some kind of powder they were pouring in.

I saw this attempted in person once, actually mounted the tire, it just deflated again a few miles after we put it back on.

On a second look I wonder if the explosion was intentional, considering the fuse.

[-] Motorheadbanger@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

This is for mounting the tyre only; this method burns whatever's inside the tyre so it actually creates negative tyre pressure, therefore, you gotta inflate it afterwards

[-] 21Cabbage@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 9 months ago

We did in fact do that.

I've seen professionals doing that correctly live. I don't know how it's done, but it's not like that

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 4 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I mean... It got the tire off. That's what he wanted, right? 🤷🏻‍♂️

[-] DesolateMood@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

This technique is actually supposed to get a tire on

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
