Ive managed to break the seal and lever tyre off nd tyre going back on now but i cant work out how to do it i havent got the proper tools nd got the tyre around the rim but gotta get side bits to sit in the rim ne1 know how to do it? fanx
what i do is bounch wheel on the ground so its even all way around, then start to re inflate it, and you will find the sides pop back into place. wierd but it always works they are meant to be like it. you can usually blow them up even if there is like an inch gap from the rim.
if you use a proper tyre pressure machine like at a garage it will go bang really loud twice thats when the pressue moves the tyre of the well and onto the lip of the rim a foot pump takes longer but the bang is a lot quieter
yea bang on th ground add some fairy liquid or sumit for lubrication wen it pops shut ur eyes or youl get fairy liquid in them!!
or go to your local tyre depot and pay a mechanic a fiver... and he"ll take the old tyre off and put the new one on with a nice shiny new valve thrown in like i did
yeh quality advise their. only cost me a fiver. and saves you strugerling your tits off and taking all paint off your rim
never, ever in any circumstances use fairy liquid, it contains salt which will corrode your rims before you can say wire wool. use wd40, its just as slippy and it evaporates off when your'e done. i would invest in a pair of tyre levers for doing tyres. use a compressor to get the tyre on its seat. (about 55-60 psi should pop it into place and the tyre will look equal al the way round) check for leaks around the rim seat and from the valve. it should take no more than 15 mins to change a tubeless tyre.
