Beading a stretched tyre or tire using a bicycle tube
by BeadHuddle on September 22nd, 2011
How to bead a stretched tyre without using explosions, compressed air or other silliness. For a 17-inch tyre you need to use a 16-inch bicycle tube. 15-14, etc… The mistakes are included to show you what not to do.
@z33twinturbo stretching tires lets you run very tight clearances between the body and the wheel. Many people like this look, others do not. There are many different ways for people to enjoy modifying cars, this is one of them.
@g0j1ra Hmm. i personally go for the flush look by getting the widest wheels/tires I can get on my car. Now that the Z is going widebody the 305 rear aint shit… gotta get spacers at least until I can afford 12 inch wheels :/
I agree with you @z33twinturbo I definitely think the squarer sidewall suits a Z33/Z34 better.
For other cars it also really depends on ride height. If the sidewall of the tire is lower than the fender I prefer non-stretched, if the sidewall is inside the fender then stretched tires can give a really nice look.
I hope you can upload some videos of your car in action!
Use mounting paste, easier !
or you could just get the right size tire for the rim
I’m gonna do 215/60/15 on a 11.2J. what do you think? lol
pretty nifty. lol. ill have to try it. it will look pretty cool on my 88 golf
is the only reason for the inner tube to hold the air in untill it gets to the rim and seals?
@smithtireco yes, that’s right. This tire is not very stretched so the gap is only small.
stretching tires looks like a good way for your chick to curb your rims!!! get some wide fatties on there!! american style!!
@macsrule15 well if you let your chick drive your car ,then you only have your self to blame!
@kevrs2 haha i dont let my old lady drive my shit and i wouldnt have the problem even if i did! lol
What a fucking stupid ass people,Why don’t you buy a bigger tire mother fucker get this shit of utube
LOL thats not even a baby stretch more like an embryo stretch.
@pixuma you can’t do EXTREME stretches with a blaster
you cant do this with just a smaller tire and bigger rim?
(Rim:17″
tire:16″??
Im suprised the innertube came out so easily :S
you should stop being a cheap bastard and buy real tires that fit and stop endangering other peoples lives.
american english is tire.. british is tyre. hahah
thats a great idea haha
i think compressed air is much faster to use than this
Federal 595SS’s represent!
@HitcherX I think fire is way more fun, but if it works it works
can someone explain to me what’s cool about stretched tires? I really don’t see it…
