Dom that dose work. Years ago when I busted tires for a living thats how we seated large truck tires its now illegal and extremely dangerous ether(starter fluid) is whats use but if u use to much the tire will blow apart and send the rim flying

I've seen the aftermath of a blow up and the rim went though a coworkers arm then the bay door. When done right this is a great way to reseat a popped bead on the trail and I was thinking of giving a demo to the members at one point but decided against it because of the risks

But at somepoint I need to find out how much ether it takes to seat the bead on my 35s wanna come over that day :?:

Those guys who drove across Antarctica a while back did that, they were running at like 2psi, and they slipped beads often. They pulled the wheel, reseated the bead, and then *briefly* put the flame at the tire and sucked the rubber to the rim. I suspect it worked better for them due to the extremely low temperatures involved.

Just keep your face away from the tire and the flame!
