@rennickoxford isnt it better to use ether ? . . . vapourises beter inside the tire

this only seats the bead, you still have to air it up after you seat the bead. If you don't the hot expanding air from the gas burning cools back down and you won't have any pressure in the tire.

I wouldnt of done it on a wood trailer. But it worked didnt it.
-
read info... and it works on holes... just do it and see.
-
what hole? lmao its not for melting a hole its to mount the the tire. If you haven't done it you wouldn't know. Besides when have you seen rubber melt that fast, as you can see they put out the fire once the tire is mounted.
-
thats not wath u do with the fire...wtf...i didan t evan said that........ as the fire heats the tire...the rubber expands and covers the hole...it sorta melts...omg...geth a piece of rubber make a hole in it and look...
-
nope thats not what you do with the fire, I've done this before but dont know much about the science behind it. I think the air inside expands with the heat there for the tire seals with the rim so that u can put air in it.
-
these is cool,it melts the rubber and there for the hole is no more....but it's dangerous...the tire is filled with air :) but GJ i like the idea
-
the heat makes the rubber swell. when it expands it connects the beed so you can fill it with air. on semi tires i used a cheeta(air bubble with a blow valve) to blow a massive amount of air in the tire to get the beed to take
awesome...but what exactly did you do?

clean the bead good, poor a couple of tablespoons of gas inside the tire and dribble a trail of gas out and down the side of the tire. light and get back. : )
just dont use too much gas!! BTW, did i mention this is really dangerous? consider it mentioned.
held air the rest of the weekend. :)
