Now that's how we did it back in the day. I lmao when the bondo file took off out of your hands. Thanks for the memories of cutting tires with my dad in the late 90's and early 2000's I love your videos Ben!!!!!
Thank You! Yeh that scared the 💩 outa me. lol.
@@kart6t3_ben ,,, I'm dying here laughing in East TN.
Thanks learned more about cutting tires. Very helpful
Thank you
Finally somebody put it online.i watched a video before on youtube.i was going try it but never did
If a series at local track opened up. That allowed zero tire prep would you kart guys run it? Obviously they would check for prep. And dq any caught.
I think there is a very real possibility of that. Some people really don’t like prep and would welcome no prep class. Imo.
Well dang! I learned something new today. Very cool process
Thanks Rob. New to me as well.
Ben, it’s like you are reading my mind with your videos.. I am trying to learn to cut my own tires as well and actually just acquired a SBC tire cutter.. I have seen this method and am going to try for sure. I use Burris tires.. I also have resurfaced my tires using the sand paper method versus the lap disc and like the sand paper much much.. Don’t the make flat rasp? Also, what air pressure are cutting at? Also those ridges as you call them as you go across the tire are created by how fast or slow you go.. if you track slower then the ridges are much smaller.. Very similar to a a brake lathe, the faster you go the rougher the cut, the slower you go the smoother the finish. I’m working on all this on tires now.
Very cool! Yeh it’s gonna take some serious time to get my technique down. I just cut at 6lbs for no other reason then why not.
So Im a body man as well and I cut my own Maxxis. You have the right idea using bondo file, make sure you measure your hiles for depth. I finish my tires with 80 grit stick it on my long duro sanding block then final finish with 180 stickit on the block. This will even your tire tread. Quit running the blade over the edge of the tire keep it as flat as possible and remove rubber from the contact patch of the tire. My tires are fast took me 2 sets to figure it out and i dont use power tools that create alot of heat when cutting.
Thank you 🙏 appreciate the tips.
Ben when you cut Burris try putting them in the freezer overnight and then cut them makes it a lot easier
I’ve heard this. Gonna have to try it sometime
I really enjoy your videos sir Thanks for the information you provide 👍
Thank you very much for watching.
Like yourself, I'm also an autobody man by trade school, but a crane operator now. We used to call those cheese graders because it looks like a cheese grader. I do like the concept of using that and will eventually try to use that once I make a tire resurfacer one day.
Yes sir. Soft bondo just shreds off with these puppies.
I think it’s the link for the tool it’s not working for me I don’t know. Is it working for anyone else definitely buying it hope you got Amazon affiliate.
I am not a affiliate. Tried it years ago and let it lapse.
Can you do it the same way with treaded tires
I’d imagine that is not a option. Treaded tires I’d be grinding. I can see one of the knobs catching the Rasp and winging it.
why should I cut my tires?
Less rotational weight and makes the tire more round. Nearly everyone does it for Burris not sure about other tires.

@@kart6t3_ben Thanks Ben, what is your opinion on using grooved tires on a dry dusty track? maybe do a video on grooved tires.
@@ddeadbeat I once grooved some slicks, Worked really well on the popcorn fart tracj I was racing. But it’s been a really long time. I don’t have a great opinion of treaded tires as I never could make them work for me. Doesn’t mean I couldn’t though. 😁
