ive done it on ATV rims, its really dangerous and to do it properly you have to remove the little valve thing from inside the stem with a remover so the fire dosent stay lit inside the tire and explode. not a good idea if it goes wrong it will explode and kill shit. ---

ya. you have to remove the CORE of the valve stem so the air leaks out and doesn’t explode then once the bead sits you quickly pump the tire. and to pop the tires off, use a bar with plastic coating and pry them off. do the reverse when putting the tire on. pop the beads with the trick. volla! only use them for drifting and u got urselves some mounted tires without balancing for FREE. ive spent literally 100s of $ just on tire mounting. ill try these on a pair of LE rims. PS: way to steal every single vid i posted on the tech section ;D credit goes to the hardcore ppl of zilvia. PPS: just get the bead blaster that one of the guys were using. the KEEP video. every tire place should have them, but since canada is weaksauce, i have yet to see any. ---

Well I have to say WRT Bead Blasters, yes they kick ass, and I’d highly recommend them, and yes we have them in Canada. We have at least half a dozen at our shop. Most of them are in the back shop where we do the transport tires, but I believe there’re a couple floating around the front shop too. ---

But yeah I totally agree, it is safe if you know what you are doing, I have seen these guys do it over and over again and they never had a problem.
