40 minutes and still not on. I'm trying to mount a Mojo tire on a GMZ wheel. 1st of all the tire isn't that soft like yours. It seems harder a bit. But my issue is that it is not bending over the wheel. One side in on and the other won't get into the groove and bend around the edge. I'm exhausted after 40 minutes. Tried warming the tire a little, applied dish washing soap, etc. Nothing, absolutely nothing. 40 minutes and not one tire is mounted and I need to mount 8 !!!

I'd love to see this technique on a cheaper, consumer grade tire.
Now can you show us with MG reds?
Mg reds are such a pain
@@thedrummingfitz742 same with rains
Hey Justin, nice meeting you in West Palm today, you asked for suggestions, how about setting up the kart for rain as we saw today?
@kart360 Tried but it's releasing the air and cant pop this way

Same issue with us. Incredibly difficult, makes me wonder if the type of wheel makes a difference.
What size rims an tires goes on a arrow kart 30/32 frame
Thank!
could any size tire fit any rim?
After the tire is inflated do you screw the bead screws all the way in?
After the bead pops into place and you've let all the air back out, then you can tighten the bead locks all the way in.
So do you need to balance the tyre then?
Yes, I do. Use 1/8 oz weights - usually they are pretty even to start with, so it doesn't take much.
MG's are much easier. Running Dunlop DFMs and the beads on those seem to have next to no bloody give!
where can I purchase these wheels and tires/what sizes did you use?

@@GlenKimpton Damn this was a while ago. Just a broke kid planning a go kart build. Might actually get around to it soon. But what is the “lol” for 🥲

Do more of these
Nathan, we're always looking for suggestions for how-to videos. Please let us know if you have any. You can also e-mail us at: hello [at] kart360.com
I actually cant do this. But i got a pretty handy machine wich is OP af.
Is not that easy on a used soft tyre.
Close ups of what you’re explaining would be better.
It's not that easy, telling us it's easy doesn't help anyone.
Don't use Windex!!!. Use Silicone grease or proper tire lube!.
Soapy water.
No.
you certainly don't want grease. the power will just spin the wheel in the tire.
source: i do tires for a living.
Whats tire mounting lubricant made from then?
tire lube is vegetable based soap. both do the same. slipery when wet and sticky when its dry. soapy water also doubles as a way to detect leaks.
