Re: Stupid tire question

I'm not a big fan of doing dumb stuff in the first place.....but when there is a camera around, I try to stay behind it.

BTW I mis-spoke before, it was acetylene, not propane. We used the regular cutting torch to blow 42-44 inch tires onto wider wheels. The sidewalls were just so soft and flabby that you could not pull them up enough to seal the bead. This was back in the late 80s and early 90s, big diameter wheels hadn't hit yet,....not even on cars.

Bad planning on your part does not necessarily constitute an instant emergency on my part....

The great thing about being a pessimist is that you are either pleasantly surprised or right.
