    Or, just get two proper tire bars and learn how to use them. Add a pair of vice grips and you could have completely swapped that tire in less time than it took to fuck around with that grinder. One wrong move, kickback, or broken disk with that grinder costs you a rim, too. Drivers who play mechanic piss off the real mechanics that have to follow behind them. Learn to do it right or leave it to the ones that know how to do it right.

  • @gen157

    I've got 2 things. First it's not against the law to run just the one tire, but I'm also thinking that it is against the law to run a rim with no tire on it. My job is to change the tires not know the law, but I know lawfully I, as a licensed tire guy, can not allow a driver to roll with no tire on the rim. I must take you out of service until fixed, or remove the wheel entirely. The second thing, virgin tires these days are made using almost the exact same process as recapping a tire is done. The order of things is different and the final "assembly" of the tire may differ, but the tread on a virgin tire can peel off just the same as a recap can. The cap is almost never the cause of failure on its own. Getting you off the highway is the first priority though. I see no problem with this in that case. I can't do it, but if it's a risk you want to take, that's on you. DOT will probably be fine with it unloaded like this. Do what you gotta do.
