Trouble beading my tyres.

[BigAl]

Yeah my Savas were a bitch to get to bead, eventually took them to a tyre shop & we pumped about 100+psi into them.

Changing tyres drove me insane initially. Now I place 2 sawhorses close together(interlocking the legs), rest 1 side of the tyre on each. Then I press down heavily on the rim to force 1 side of the tyre on. I then turn wheel and tyre over, gently press down on the rim while pumping air in at max pressure and whamo up the tyre goes. Works every time with my Sava's

And I greened ya. Deal with it

He didn't like it when I green blinged him. Fuck that was funny.

Put a tube in it and inflate. Leave it in the sun for a day or 2 then take the tube out if it's such a worry.

For some stupid reason all I could think of when I saw the heading of this thread was someone having difficulty sewing little glass beads to the sidewalls to make them look pretty.

Hay Aero I think peopel have the wrong idea here... let me put a bit of light on the subject... the tyres are pumping up on the rim but not beading at 100psi or not "poping"on the rim like it has a high spot in the bead...I have surgested the rim needs to be put into a lathe and spun up to find the high spot... Sava tyres are a tight fit on a billet alloy rim let alone a cast alloy rim compaired to a chineese tyre.

Thanks for all the help guys! I have sent the wheels down to xtreme minimoto. We'll see what happens
