Hypothermia Run (night snow run)

[Starboard M]

Fast way:

Involves removing wheel from vehicle and a flamable gas. I have only seen this done, never tried it. I wouldn't recommend it, but in a pinch it works. I have heard that the valve core should be pulled while doing this so the vacuum caused after the initial explosion doesn;t suck the bead back off.


Be careful, have fun, and be prepared for any eventualilty

Doesnt have to be off the Jeep. Just get all preasure off of the tire. Ive done this so many times, its not even funny. Never put 11.5'' wide tires on 10'' rim:nono:

After doing this:

We messed around first:

And then here is a vid of us setting it.

I dont advise this way at all. Please be carefull and know what you are doing. Do not try these tricks at home. The people doing these things are trained pros. Plese be safe.:lecture:

If anyone else wants to join in, let's meet at In'n'Out burger in Auburn, at the Hwy 49 offramp from I-80. Meet there about 6:30-7:00, get a burger, then fuel up and head to the snow.

Where exactly were you ?
Tyler-Foote road ?

It didnt work right the first 2 times. Didnt pop that time at first so I leaned in to look, and it poped. :shocked:

yeah ive seen that done before but the tire and rim was off the car, they sprayed carb cleaner in it then they threw a match at it and it popped right in.
