    I've been an truck driver for close to 30 yrs now & an owner/operator truck driver for over 10 yrs...it still amazes me at how fast some of the "HIGHLY SKILLED TIRE MEN" are at changing a tire on the side of the road.
    I had all 10 tire on my truck truck replaced last year at tire dealership here in Mobile Alabama & the tire man did all 10 tires...dismounting & remounting in less than 2 hours. This guy was AWESOME & FAST!!!

    How are tires usually balanced on trucks or trailers ?
    I saw some liquid in the old one.
    Is there an approved method or products by the government ?

    • @yodaddy4944
      @yodaddy4944 6 лет назад

      michaelovitch mounting an balancing is completely unregulated, most don't balance trailer tires because nobody cares if the trailer rides smooth. And I hope it stays that way, because if the government was involved that 10 min job would take twice as long and cost three times as much for no reason.

    In many ways an on the axle job is easier especially for the outside tires. It's those inside ones that take more time. When your job is busting tires you do it any way you have to, sometimes it's easy, sometimes it's not. It always never matters.

    Nice of some of these people to show their ignorance when it comes to doing a job they have never done. The drop center or well as some have called it is the same on both sides of an aluminum wheel so you can take the tire off either side. On a steel wheel the drop center or well is offset to one side and the the tire is supposed to come off that side. The yellow tool was a third hand or called a pineapple, don't know he got it out and didn't use it. It works like the vise grips do, but has a rubber coating to keep from scratching the wheel. I was wondering why he put a drive tire on a trailer too, but sometimes you gotta work with what you have.

      In perspective every tire or component that spins needs to be balanced ... however for semi truck dully tires is better to use a balancing bag if you want it balanced.

  • @mikek8632
    @mikek8632 6 лет назад

    Dismounting and remounting a tire from the wrong side of the rim stretches and damages the bead therefore weakening the tire. If this were a normal dual setup this would have been ok because the drop center of the rim is centered and they can be removed from either side however that is not normally the case with a super single and looks as that wasn't the case with this rim. I can almost guarantee at some point in this tires life there will be issues with the bead or the sidewall near the bead. I do this professionally for a living and the small effort it would have taken to remove the rim from the vehicle is well worth it.
    I am glad to see they didn't do the morons bead seating method and use either, I was waiting for that as it would have just been the icing on the cake so to speak.

    I do this exactly the same way. Usually takes me about 15 minutes though from arrival at the job till the tire is mounted and airing up. Any time that can be saved without having to remove the rim is a good thing TIA approved or not is irrelevant in the real world.

    • @davidhoffman1278
      @davidhoffman1278 6 лет назад +2

      Sir Nicholas D ,
      When I was a child, early 1970s, they used to sell precision tuned thumping sticks or rods to truck drivers. They had all the precision and accuracy of doing brain surgery with a chainsaw and an inebriated monkey. One of greatest wallet emptying gimmicks ever created.

    • @davidhoffman1278
      @davidhoffman1278 6 лет назад +1

      Sir Nicholas D ,
      Sad. I saw some tractor-trailer tire safety videos that concentrated trailer tire safety. The videos discussed all the ways that poorly inflated or poorly matched tires might lead to tread separation. One of the ways to significantly reduce the probability of tread separation was to use a eight port balancing air manifold with air lines going to all eight trailer tires. You then did a simultaneous fill and pressure check on all the tires at one time.
      There are obviously a lot of other factors that can create trailer tire tread separation issues: Damaged axles, bent axles, misaligned wheels, bad bearings, etcetera, but failure to accurately and precisely balance trailer tire pressure was seen as a large percentage probable cause for trailer tire tread separations and blowouts.
      You can't do that with thumpers.

    If you come up on a service vehicle on the side of the road, MOVE OVER. This can be and is a dangerous job.
    This tire dude is a bad a$$.

    Looks like it was fighting him some Chinese tire probably American made don’t fight so much. Good job all in all . I do this every day so I know first hand how hard this work is and how heavy a 445 22.5 are

    • @Daschickenify
      @Daschickenify 6 лет назад

      I can only imagine how heavy they are. Even the 235/85/16 trailer tires I have done are freaking heavy for what they are. They are only rated to 90 PSI as well I believe. Heaviest I have changed were 37x13.5x20s. Something like 86 pounds each, rims were around 36 pounds each. HEAVY!

    Wow, pretty fast! If you had a jack stand or a piece of dunage to simply go under the axle, it would already be much more safe and shouldn't cost you much setup time. Cheers!

      Hey thanks for the quick reply!
      I've watched a couple of your videos because worked in a shop where we pulled a lot of tires off trucks for inspections, you make it look easy. I remember one truck had in had inner steel wheels and outer aluminum(so stupid), had no spacer between it so the two were seized together. we wailed on it from front and back, loosened the lugs off and drove it across railroad tracks and still it didn't come off! eventually I layed one end a 4x6 in the wheel and hit it with a sledge, rotated it around till it was free, I did all 8 that way. Just curious what you do when wheels are seized solid like that?
      I enjoy your videos, seems like you've been around the block a few times with tires. :) Merry Christmas!
