Tire questions

Maybe use spray on insulation. It expands after application and would probably mix with helium,plus seal punctures in the tire. Win/win.

The wife told me I was full of it.........who knew I had some useful info in there?

 

[NewHere2]

Well, how is it working ??

I’m still learning all this off road stuff and I’m curious if I run helium in my tires will my buggy just float across the mud holes?
Also using helium in my tires should help when rock climbing because the tires should just float up and over the rocks, right?
I’d appreciate any and all input on this subject.
Thanks.

If you're gonna go the floating tire route, use hydrogen instead as it is even lighter than helium.

Isn’t hydrogen the PoPo of gases?

Only if you are not rotating your tires.

No, that would be methane.

No, that would be methane.

I gave up meth a couple weeks ago…

No problem then… I rotate my tires ever time I drive my buggy… and occasionally I take them off and swap them around on the buggy

What oil are you running is just as important. Also what did you gap your plugs at after you added helium?

I went with a 2 stroke oil, I figured it felt the lightest,
As far as spark plug gag… I didn’t measure Ed Zackery but it appears to be about 12-14” maybe more…

Plug gap? As in Mind the gap!🤔

Right on, right on. I'm considering doing this and looking for all the info I can. I was also considering running my tires inside out, should last twice as long.

Switch to blues. Apparently they are all the rage now!!!

Don’t forget to rotate the tires perpendicular to the rotation of the axel shafts! You should consider getting omnidirectional tires and rims!

Very important to have all of the odd number cylinders spark plugs with a 0 gap.

I think that’s a different thread…
Although, I was checking out the ball part on the Bosses Dyson earlier…

Running the tires inside out? 🤔…
Before or after you wear the tread on the outside?
