@@SwapBlogRU My 1958 F600 has a 292 CID gasoline motor, and it hauls around 26,000 pounds on axle without a complaint. What Sparky said was right, it comes down to gears and low speed. That Toyota motor is a good one, but without some serious gearing, it too will pull itself out.
@@TheUchihasparky Since it's the 4x4 version, it's probably got an extra low 1st gear. There are versions around with a low range transfer case too - 4XOverland has done a few videos recently on an off road Hiace he's converting to an overlander. Anyone who's driven a tractor knows that you don't even need 100 bhp to effortlessly move very heavy loads around at low speeds.
Ha, you can ton anything but can you stop ? :) I would hate to be the kid that runs in to. the street chasing a ball, & in front of a Toyota Hiace pulling 15k+ lbs.
Just moving it around at low speed isn't that difficult. The towing limit on a vehicle is mostly how much weight it can control at normal driving speed. With a trailer that can handle the weight, the Toyota could probably move twice that much around a parking lot. I wouldn't want to be anywhere near it if it got on the highway, though.
Tires are rated to deal with potholes at high speed. The waving of metal strings keeps it together but not for long the heavier you go over the limit. Wheels are usually the weak point in real driving condition unless something punctures your tire as usual.
The static load is the easy part, heat buildup in the tyre while it's rolling is the real tyre killer. Driving for a couple of hours at highway speed is where the load rating matters - very few real world users would be happy if all their tyres could manage was to survive a lap of the car park in 1st gear.

Love it, Cheers from England! I once put a Battery powered forklift on my trailer, the owner of the forklift said it weighed 4.5 ton, turns out it was almost 8 ton, Lets say even though it was a 4 wheel trailer it rolled all of the rims through the tires plus the ground and over a few miles all the air escaped plus the trailer was making some very very alarming noises, like pops and bangs and moans and groans! Once we got it to it's new location, all the tires was flat as a pancake and we bent the ramps like bananas trying to get it off. All this on 4 old Ford Granarda alloy wheels that was over 20 years old already, unfortunately only 1 survived to this day. Moral of the story, never believe any one when they say there forklift is lite! Keep up the good work and keep the video's coming, full respect from the North East of England.
I remember these guys reaching 1M subs and suddenly, the muricans started unsubing bcz of the rus-ukr conflict, even though they didn't even have anything to do with it.
Same reason we had citizens ( japanese mostly) in enternment camps even though they were born here same reason why nissan used datsun at first because we would of never bougbt a nissan ,that was the name vets knew
I mean for experimenting is pretty hardcore to install 7+ tons on EACH wheel but driving would be insane. I have seen people who loaded up their cars with 2-3 tons of cargo but anything more would be insane and dangerous. I drive a 3.5 ton van at work and empty it's at 2600 kgs. If I load it with one ton of cargo I can already feel it driving more difficult and braking is a problem, especially if I descend a mountain. So overall WEIGHT is not everything. When you load your trailer or van with stuff don't think all about if tires can handle it, because clutch will take a beating and also your brakes!! Stay safe and love this channel
I used to drive a 14' flatbed, the most i ever hauled was a bunch of skids, net ~16500lbs, 7500kg. It was interesting, the truck didnt have the brakes for it.
i think in case of real driving at normal speed there would be additional stress and resistance causing heat and it would fail after some time with much less weight.
When breaking in strong curves the whole weight of the car may be on just one tire, so they can bear at least 1.5 tons. In addition when hitting bumps or potholes the weight is multiplied. This is calculated by engineers for safe driving. My opinion though..
True. The rating means that the tire should operate at given weight indefinitely. So you can drive as long as you want at max speed that a tire is rated to. And as you said - drive on uneven terrain, curves etc. It's not just static load.
Bunch of dumbasses if you ask me, let's lean over a tire that's under a tremendous amount of pressure and risk breaking our ribs and rupturing our internal organs.
Max load rating of a tire is at max air pressure. Tire is most likely rated for 44psi and that's when it can hold around 500 kg. If the pressure is at 20 psi then it should be basically only hold 250 kg per tire
Overload a fully stock Lada with minimum tread on tires, and drive until you can’t, then keep loading until the rim touches the ground, testing pressure like you did here. I always wanted to know how much you can load into a 4 door sedan.
I see the tires on my car are rated for 650kg per tire. Given my car's 1315kg weight and 60:40 weight distribution, one front tire would be holding up just 395kg. And that's not even accounting for unsprung weight and left-right weight ratio. The key takeaway is that, I can get A LOT FATTER and the tires will be fine.
major thing with weight, not only does the tire rating play a factor in load weight however its also your wheel bearings, hubs, axle, suspension etc. All of that takes into play. What may not blow a tire driving 3 miles an hour. But just standstill weight will bend the axle and ruin the suspension. You can also damage a frame as well. Edit: The standard weight rating per tire is also included based on heat and faster speeds than what they are doing. I can say that 2,000 - 4,000 pounds over weight limit those tires will blow after less than 50 miles.
I scrap metal, and for the longest time I just had a I guess about a 12 foot with a single axle running 14s. I've had 2 standard tons on her more than once and drove 45min from my house to the scrapyard.😮
Remember that’s nearly static load (not moving or slowly moving) & if want really test it do at freeway speeds of 100km/hr which why they have both speed & weight ratings since both are rating of the tire.
Got thrown for a loop when the translation kept saying "Kilos" for what looked to me clearly like Bar. So a quick note, a kilogramforce/centimeter^2, is a deprecated SI measurement that is equivalent to 98-ish KPa, whereas a Bar is equal to 100KPa, so there's your factoid of the day. (1 bar is roughly 14.5 PSI for the Americans)
Technically you're correct. Kilos is sort of a colloquial term, and while it's not entirely accurate, it's "as near as makes no difference", as they say.
@@SwapBlogRU Yes it's a prefix and understanding the context is the only reason it still makes any sense when he says it. "Kilo" by itself tho usually refers to mass, but even bending that to pressure as we do here in the states with PSI ("pounds"), it still doesn't make sense. At 3 "kilos", that would be a mere ~6.6 psi, where 3 bar, and what is actually meant in the videos, almost 45 psi. Not exactly a trivial difference. Those of us that get it, get it, but imagine how confused someone without the insight would be when their tires are still flat while the ones in the video at the "same pressure" are wanting to pop. It is what it is but I'm glad someone besides me noticed it and said something.
@@MadScientist267 I feel like you might be slightly overcomplicating this. I'm pretty sure that "kilos" in the original video refers to "kg/cm2" (which the OP picked up on, with him mentioning "kilogramforce/centimeter^2"). If we were to express kg/cm2 in atmospheres (which is the measure we use for tire pressure here in Russia), then 1 kg/cm2 would equal 0,967841105354057 atm, or if we prefer bar, then it would be 0,980664999999998 bar. Again, close as pretty much makes no difference.
@@SwapBlogRU Yeah my bad on that. I thought about the metric end after but didn't bother to come back to make any corrections. You're right. Still just so odd to hear as an English speaker using imperial lol
I knew this would happen. The weight won't make a tire pop, but the heat does when going down the road. Having the tire's sidewall flex by being overloaded or underinflated causes excess heat and weakens the tire.
💥 boom baby crumpled the rim I would like to see even half that amount of weight go cruising down the interstate at speed with your setup ..that definitely would be interesting 😅
The trailer hitch is made the handle the forces of a 2 ton trailer braking or accelerating at high speed. Slowly driving, the forces on the van aren´t crazy.
the crazy thing is, is the hiace axle well it's from a hilux but knowing that it's not even a floating axle and can handle a that much ton trailer is amazing
The weight and the speed index do not show the maximum the tyre can achieve and then when you increase them by 1 it will blow up. No. This is the maximum rating for how fast under how much weight the tyre can work all the time without increased wear and decrease performance. So it's normal to take more than what is the rating, but the tyre will wear faster and might get damaged very quickly.
I'm not sure about there, but here the laid rating changes with tire pressure. The sidewall tells you the load rating at max PSI. Some tire manufacturers will give you more ratings.
The tires have to be designed for the *dynamic loading it will encounter in operation through its speed range. Dynamically, hitting a pothole at 80mph is tremendously different than static loading.
The ratings on a tire bare the entire systems limits in mind at the same time, so those ratings would be for the worst case condition for the tire, e.g max pressure, at max speed, with max load rating, and obviously the temperature that would be generated at those ratings from friction when braking or turning. But still impressive to see a tire withstand one rating to such a degree!
I remember a long time ago, my neighbors 16 year old son dropped by for a visit in his Honda Accord his dad had bought for him. He said he thought the tires were low, so he stopped at the gas station on the way and aired them up. My neighbor checked the pressure, but his gage seemed to be defective, would not give a reading, just popped out all the way. I checked with mine, it pegged the needle at 60 psi. So I got my bicycle gage….the kid had put 113 psi into those Michelin tires. He was not very hands on, and had no idea that this was bad, he thought “they looked low”. He thought they needed even more air. It really scared me at the time, but after seeing this video I guess it takes a lot more than that to blow them up.
A customer brought their 2008 Chrysler 300 into my shop one day for an oil change. While doing the service I checked the pressures in her aftermarket low-profile 22" tires. Each one was at 90 PSI. Damn thing must have felt like it was riding on steel wheels.
Imagine that, when you abuse the tires they never break but when you just bought your new set of them for your car you get the tiniest of sharp rock or whatever penetrating through the rubber giving you a flat tire days after you got them
I wonder if you could make a mini artic out of Lada parts? Doubling up wheels, and having a lot of gears as we do on the real thing. Maybe not good for forty tons or more, but interesting nonetheless!
Quote taken from a tyre retailer "The load rating, load index or load carrying capacity is represented by a numerical code and is associated with the maximum load that the tyre can carry when operating at its maximum speed rating up to but not exceeding 210kph." Therefore unless you are driving at speed then it's a pretty useless test.
welcome to the world of engineering and technical design the wheels load rating is calculated with a safety factor of 5-10x the load rating, in some cases that safety factor can be as much as 20x and more depending on the specific application a wheel is, by it's nature, a part with dynamic loading, for dynamic loads you generally have a safety factor much higher than for static load then it's also a safety relevant component adding to that safety factor

Can you redo this episode with aluminum wheels to see how much of a difference there would be?
Steel rim is Extra tough if it's a subcompact car to 1 ton truck. Aluminum alloy rim is extra tough if it's a 4500 dually to semi truck
And make the aluminium rim out of soda cans
Doesn't make that big of a difference
Steel rims bend, aluminium rims crack and snap. Aluminium rim would probably break and split when the tire pops or maybe even before.
It wouldn't make a large difference, if any at all. The tire is the weak link here
8 kg/cm² = 113 psi

probably the same rim blows first

the wheels load rating is calculated with a safety factor of 5-10x the load rating, in some cases that safety factor can be as much as 20x and more depending on the specific application
a wheel is, by it's nature, a part with dynamic loading, for dynamic loads you generally have a safety factor much higher than for static load
then it's also a safety relevant component adding to that safety factor
I'm more impressed with that Yoda
Great test, thanks
More things to do at the scrapyard, please!! 🙂
Interesting experiment taught me alot.
All you learned was "It's fun to crush stuff".
@@3rdpig well I always used to wonder how a tire will crush know I know how will it crush if I over load it.
Real miracle is that Toyota van there
For a new experiment put 4 carburator per cylinders. 😊
Good god then just imagine those huge 101” tires wheel loaders use then. You could put axles on the damn titanic for those!
looks like something you would see going to the scrap yard in New Orleans
Or Detroit
The weight did not explode the tire. It merely deformed the rim until the air seal was broken and the tire deflated.
that was a very cool experiment!
that last load was somewhere north of 32,000 pounds... all on a trailer that's likely not rated to do 2,000 on a good day.
auf die ideen zu kommen ist einfach klasse
the vid i have always been looking for
Wow, very impressive. Driving down the road with that much weight as a projectile is pretty dangerous. Cool to see how much it can hold.
damn boris really determined to pop the tire.. ahahahahaha
Id like to see shock absorbers in place of a harmonic balancer!
Next experiment, put the outboard of the boat in the Lada.
This is entertainment............are you not entertained
At 6tons now still waiting for tyres to pop😁
That's one tough tire!
I just about to comment on the hitch being a champ. That should have buckled long before 7k
How much hp can a Lada engine take before something brakes also how much faster will it go tell it brakes.
Thoughts on this being a video
Under what cooling conditions, as they broke 1 just revving it round a car park in 1st. Or you could add turbos and nitrous and fuel increase.
@@TimpBizkit oh ya or like the one video when they let the oil cool to the point they broke the teeth best videos ever lol 😆
what I would like to know is how the actual tire is holding up.
we see the rims have buckled but what is the condition of the rubber
What if you run a twin turbo setup on something and then route one of the turbs to the cool off the intercooler/radiator and then the other works normally
