broken bead

[alex456123]

my rear right tire inside bead is broken, one day it just completely deflated and decided to debead it's self. it will hold air for about five minutes and go flat to where i can push the tire in (off the bead) again. how do i fix it?

 

[88WarriorBoy]

bend the rim back lol

 

[YAMAHAULER]

sounds like the bead is broke in the tire you shouldn't be able to push the tire off the bead by hand
is the rim dented?

 

[88WarriorBoy]

oh crap lol wasnt thinkin but Ed is right

 

[alex456123]

well no i cant get the bead to seat my rear rims are fine.

New tires

 

[alex456123]

how do you seat the bead!!!!!!!!??!?!??!!?!??!?

 

[YAMAHAULER]

you got the right size tire for the rim?
Not calling you out just thinking the easy **** first
try this squirt some warm soapy water or WD-40 around the bead and it should pop on

 

[alex456123]

ok because the other side is perfect. in fact all my tires match just that one stubborn tire

 

[duneracerweston]

Run some dish soap around the wheel and air it up to 35 pounds or till you hear a pop that sounds like small arms fire and makes you jump out of your skin, then deflate to 5psi or your normal tire pressure

kk ill try that tomarrow.

I find using heavy grease around the bead works really good. I also squirt a bit of ether in the tire. Stand back, and toss a match at it.
If it doesn't seat like that.. It ain't gonna. lol

Make sure you take your valve out if you try that though.

 

[YAMAHAULER]

Oh how I remember my Step Father doing that back when I was a kid BOOM!!!!

 

[Mathius]

I did it on a 35" once, and didn't take the valve out...
It blew the stem out with so much force man!! It was gone, and the wheel jumped 6' feet in the air.
Of course we didn't use just a little ether. (maybe a 1/4 can)

 

[YAMAHAULER]

OMFG!!!! You Crazy SOB!!! I can only think you all had to have been DRINKING???LMFAO!!!

Or high from the ether

 

[Mathius]

It coulda been a little of both.. lmao
Have you ever went 4x'n sober? It's boring. lol

 

[YAMAHAULER]

You mean the fact that you'll do things you wouldn't normally do sober like go through a mud hole you know you don't stand a chance making it through in other words alcohol makes you more Ballsy and less worried about breaking sumtin or getting stuck then YES I have to agree with you on this one.

 

[Mathius]

VRRRRROOOOOOM..."boing" . . . . . SLAM!
Awe dude did you see that! I didn't even spill my beer.. lmfao

 

[YAMAHAULER]

I remember at 18 I had a 77 chevy scottsdale camper special wood floor box with 2 ton military axles,35"'s and small block 400
a bunch of friends and I wanted to get to the best part of the river cause the trail was blocked off by huge boulders so I made my own trail through the woods knocking over 3" trees to get to the spot on the river let's just say we weren't sober Lol

If you spray more ether than a half second in the tire look out its going to be scary. I've done it and don't recommend it.
Jack your bike up
Have a buddy push or pull the tire so the bead seats
And put air in it
If one bead is seated then this should work
