It's been a while since I edited a video, used this opportunity to break off some rust. Also new AE86 video coming soon, soon as in not next week.. probably late January or early February.. I hope.

The most impressive thing was getting a perfect tire Ballance without weights.

Are we all missing the fact that tire was perfectly balanced

This is the least ducheist video I have even seen on stretching tires. I'm glad I watched. Thumbs up for you.

We have been stretching tires for years in the low rider community 5.20’s on 13x7 wire wheels and 155-80-13 tires in the same style wheel. 👍

The most ridiculous stretch i ever did was 205/45 on a 17x10. That already was pretty dumb :'D

You were correct on mounting it upside down, that's called a reverse mount wheel. Also for best results have somebody hold the tire halfway up the wheel while you blast it, it shows fit the air to fill the gap better and makes the space it has to cover less

You have the charisma and demeanor in your videos to take this channel a lot further, I subbed right away

You have nice calm warm voice, was watching tyre reviews and this just popped on a autoplay. You got a new subscriber.

Good video on a stupid trend. Nice job!

This makes stretched tires so much cooler... crazy!!!

I wonder when installing tires inside out will catch on in japan.

Crazy amount of effort man, props to you👍🏻

I think this is a stupid trend. To each his own i guess.. Good vid.

Tip. Use a direct air line .ie, straight from your compressor or main line when trying to inflate the tyre. The Auto34 air hose as to much restriction, that's what the clicking sound is.. Great video !!

omg that hair, ur turning into a real drifter

Starting fluid works wonders also, especially when bead seating a Semi tire in 10deg weather

Federal 595 SS, love those tires!

👍 for the mechanic!

yup would trust that S)*(T on speed or any hard turn or maneuver. If anything I always try to go a bit more tire than rim to ensure my contact patch is as optimal and secure as possible.

Excellent video. Most detailed and correct explanation I've ever seen.

This was a fun video. Thanks for making and uploading it.

i run a very slight stretch on my tires, i have a 8.5' wheel and 215 tires, looks perfect for my taste

It might not make a whole lot of sense, but I work as a tire mechanic and I’ve had people asking me to stretch tires out and it’s been a pain. What I’ve found is that do the same as you are having the larger part of the drop center seated first, than putting it vertical on the balancing machine so that the rim doesn’t move at all and there’s no downward force of the weight of the tire to blast. That way once the bead is atleast some what seated on the back there’s a smaller pocket on the bottom side of the tire to blast. And the top of the tire is somewhat centred between both the beads on the rim. Not easy to explain in text or this extreme of a stretch

You did everything by the book. Would never use burning gas like some do.. Yes fill the tire allmost to max air pressure. Then lower it after a few min.. 185 is kinda extreme on a 13 inch.. but look good. Just a tip, be carefull stretching premium tires. Some of them are not strong enough to be stretch to much Supose to be some of the best to stretch is Falken tires

Nice balance machine. I like your technique, although I some times find very little lube lets one bead stick a little better to the rim during bead seating. Thanks.

I wish our tire balancing machine was that clean all around. It always looks like a 5 year old have a field day with it.

He's back!

As if it was balanced! That’s actually amazing

Keep the air hose connected to the blaster after you build some pressure. Make sure the small input valve is opening and blast the tire right as the overpressure relief is about to go. This will keep forcing air for longer after you initially blast it. Be careful tho, the blaster will kick like a mule.

We were doing tire stretch in the late 80's and early 90's on mini trucks in So Cal

I once beaded a karting tyre on a rim that had a mild stretch with deodorant and lighter, had a brick on the tyre to hold it in place, well you can guess the brick flew up pretty high :D

Pretty badass. im having trouble mounting, yes just getting a 235/60 on a 10" wide wheel. Let me mention it's a double bead lock wheel as well.

perfectly balanced as all things should be

Back when it was the fad to put stretched 175/70-14's on 8-10" knock-off wire spoke wheels (usually on an 80's cutlass for some reason), we would simply inflate tubes in the tires ahead of time to help form a 'stretched memory' into the tire's sidewalls before mounting them. Think of it like this: tires at the shop were normally stacked by size, applying a squeezing (compression) pressure to them, and when you un-stack them they don't immediately return (relax) to normal width between the beads. By inflating tubes inside the tires ahead of time (days or weeks), we could reverse that squeeze and if we worked quickly, could get the tire mounted without a cheetah because they would momentarily hold that 'stretched memory' shape. We still required a signed liability (hold harmless) waiver, and warranty waiver.

I work at a tire shop and I’ve had a 35x12.50 tire one a 20x9 wheel balance perfectly as well

Man. That's a big rim for that small tire. My hat is off to you. For mounting that.

Thank you learn something new every day

In Australia we had stretch tyers way way back in 1980's for the v8 supercars in Australia here cheers from cameron in Australia here

Dude needs to be a voice on biographies 👍🏻☝️☝️

Tire stretching began with lowriders back in the 70's. 5.20 tires on a 7" or 8" wide rim.

The angle of the cheetah and lube is key when stretching tires. I worked in a tire shop for years and absolutely hated having to stretch tires.

Had those same ones on the civic , stocc wheels tho but it lowered the car ”1 over the stock 175-70

I like that clip of starting fluid that flashed a for a sec. That's how we do it.

Great video dude! Sound like you're on the USS Missouri air craft carrier lunch the F-18 off.

Thanx for the video. I'm actually doing this exact same thing. On the exact same VMS rim, only mines a 13x9. I'm also using the exact same tire, and size... lol But just to add something on stretches like this. It's best to have 2 guys, and 2 Cheetahs. Hit it from both sides, and it'll catch almost every time.

Looks like the successful one you held the air blaster more upright 👍

That's an impressive stretch! #MajorProps Here in Germany I do some tire stretch. I have special tools to cover the gap between the tire and the wheel. One cheep solution on less stretch can be a bicycle tube at the lower lip. The tire moves up and the compressed air can be shot directly in the gap. // Nice edit - like it a lot! 😎👍

Man this shop look freaking great

Gracias me ayudo mucho su tutorial saludos desde Mexico

He's back! Now if only Noriyaro would make another 86 video...

I've never seen that airgun. That is so awesome

A tiny bit of stretch can vastly improve turn in response. I have 205/50/15s on 15x8s which has amazing turn in

Mine use 185/55 to 16*9.0 on rear. 16*8.0 on the front. It’s kinda hard to mount new tires. So I always move the front to rear wheels. And put new tires on the front. It’s already pre-stretched so it’s easier to mount on the rear wheel. Front camber was neutral. But rear was -1.5’. I purposely let the rear wear the thread and finish off the tire.

Use a p3 or also know as a quick air. You can also tube the tire and seat one bead then pull the tube out the drop center side. Pop a 413 stem in it and push the tire to seat the other side.

this channel is ready to become big

Not only it looks silly isn't that really like not safe?

I had a kid come to my shop wanting stretched tires. I laughed and told he should get the correct size tire for his rim. He didn’t like my advice. We live in a small town of just 500 people and all of our roads are dirt

Really dope video.

Getting a perfect balance always makes me second guess LOL

Recently fitted a 185/60 on a 13x10. Then swapped to a 195/50 Thought it'd be funny to try a 165/60 and it inflated, but couldn't get fully stretched to both beads. So a 165/65 may be the absolute limit for a simple fire on stretch on the 13x10

what happened in your successful attempt was the bead on the outside clung to the rim. i do it first time by seating the bead in the outside or inside rim with the standard bead breaker on my tyre machine then lift the tyre with hand until i close the gap and fill the tyre the normal way from the valve without using huge burst of air.

Awsome video man. I work for vianor tire so I relate with you lol

I've used ratchet straps to squish the tire(spelled correctly). Then use a air gun nozzle to blast air into the valve stem. Takes a couple tries . A cheetah would have made it easier.

hate the trend, but a great video, gave you a thumbs up for it being well put together.

In the Netherlands we have apk for cars, the yearly checkup. And they pass streched tires as long as the wheel doesn't stick out of the mud guard more than 30mm. So it is allowed in the Netherlands, with European insurance I can drive it through all of Europe without a problem.

This is my job before as a tire assembler for armoured vehicles ... I really miss this job

That's gorgeous 😍

Lighter fluid works well

Sometimes it helps to have a rachet strap around the tire to force the tire bead in contact with the inside of the rim. When it starts taking air by itself release the strap.

Something to consider with tore stretching is most if not close to all vehicles running them are show vehicles. Meaning they don't go on 100+ mile drives so the risk of a blow out is considerably lower then someone with a regular tire driving on a 500+ mile trip a few times a year

I like the atmosphere, subscribed.

Those are reverse mount wheels, a ratchet strap would help you a lot, I've changed from low profile tires to stretching big super swampers on 15 inch wide wheels

Great Job!

No weights to balance? Wow. Like you, when I get a tire come up that says it needs no weights to balance, I turn the wheel 90 degrees on the balancer and test it again. Well done!

I work at a tire shop and this was hella sick to watch

Gotta hand it to ya. Ive been doing tires for 17 years, and i would have lost my patience a long time ago! Good work tho.

We had to mount some 35x10.50R20’s on a set of 20x15 wheels at the shop I used to work at. It was ludicrous. thankfully i convinced the kid of the error of his ways and got him to aim for real performance instead of I don’t even know what he was thinking. That truck was all Jankey when it first came to us...

Looks sick man, nice wheel choice

Welcome back

I noticed. most of your attempts you were shooting air at the tire. when it went up you were shooting air downwards at the tire when it inflated on the rim 🚘🚘🚘

gotta love how mounting/balancing stations only have room for weights and a pry bar. The width scale, hammer, solvent, rags, abrasives, die grinders, ect. have nowhere to go. I've been wheeling a cart over there

Which tyre is better for stretch purpose? Federal 595 or Nankang ns2?? Looking forward to some fact based discussion*

Good work and congrats guys

The old tire shop I worked at mounted the 17 inch trailer tires we did upside down

The metal scratchy sounds pierced my soul

Dude so interesting you taught me some shit good job

Yeah starting fluid is way easier and works on bigger tires like AG tires and stiff tractor trailer tires when the cheetah doesn't have enough volume

They started doing it with the mini slammed trucks in Hollywood mid 80s

You can't get away with driving on tyres like that in the uk anymore. They have changed our mot rules "thats a yearly mandatory inspection" If you get caught buy vosa or the police, its 3 points on your driving license and a fine per tyre. Plus you'll have to tow your car away as it has unsafe tyres.

Great video

IM wondering if you sinched up a strap around the tire to assist you

Why would anyone stretch a tire? In Europe driving with those It's a penalty like hell and there+s no way to legalize that... USA is different story...

0:05 This look isn't new, we were doing this on minitrucks when I was in high school in Beaverton Oregon in late 1980's. 15X10 reverse wheels, not wires, with a 195-50-15. Back then we had a very limited tire size selection, nothing like it is now. That's like 30+ years ago.

Great video bro :D keep the awesome work tnks

awesome vid man to each their own...

Was wondering when this video was gonna go up!

What's the benefit of tire stretching beside for cosmetic appearance? Would stretching the tires ruin the grip, ride quality etc..

I found that using lube it make slip wen the bead stretches so less lube the better as its rubber it will grip the rim better 🤙🏻🤙🏻

esa llanta federal es muy buena rines y llantas ad es el unico almacen que la tiene en la octava en bogota
