We show the best way to get a snowblower tire back on the rim that is flat and will not hold air because it is off the bead.
This process is fairly simple and we show the instructions that vary slightly depending on the condition of the tire and whether it has flat spots in it or not.
This is shown on a Craftsman 24" snowblower but this method works on all brands, makes and models with inflatable tires without a tube.

You know, I like to think of myself as a mildly “handy” guy, but over the years I’ve found myself popping onto YT for various quick fixes and hacks, some being great, some not worth the eye strain it takes to stare at the screen. However, THIS one right here, this glorious strap-the-fuzzuck-out-of-your-snowblower-tire was an absolute grand slam home run of a tip! 🥇 Yes, I should have listed to his “be careful releasing the strap (pressure) after pumping it up, but thankfully I avoided losing my right hand (the most important one for reasons I won’t mention 😐) and got the strap off. Once fully inflated, the tire stayed on even barreling through a foot of freshly fallen, heavy, wet snow. This video didn’t save my life, but it certainly saved me from trying some other oddball, waste of time and money quick fix…and it worked! You are my new hero. At least for today 🤙🏻🤩

This was a fantastic tip! Worked exactly as the video showed, and still holding air. I was ready to bring the whole thing into a shop because I couldnt get the wheel off. This was MUCH better.

I didn't have a strap or compressor but what ended up working for me was taking the tire off the snowblower and stepping hard in the middle around the tread several times until it looked about right, then used a hand pump to fill it with air. It may have also worked with the tire still on, but it seemed easier to maneuver once removed. So far so good. Good luck and hope this helps someone.

This definitely worked for me. Except, I actually took the entire wheel off (but probably didn’t need to). Bought the belt at Home Depot and was able to fix the tire and then put the wheel back on. Thanks for the video.

All I have to say is "Holy Smokes"! The rachet strap worked great. Tire got fixed and put back on (I removed it for ease) in nothing flat.

@IndRepair Год назад

Glad you got it back on! Good job! Thanks for watching!!

@philliphall5198 Год назад

I use plastic strap and banding tool Fast and easy to Try it

@IndRepair Год назад

We don't do any banding here but I'm sure it works good also!

@bahlsmcgee619 6 месяцев назад

Leave the valve in the stem, much easier m

@IndRepair 6 месяцев назад

If it is not sealed to the bead most times removing the valve core to initially seat the bead is required (or much easier anyway) thanks for watching!

@jonathanyoung5843 6 месяцев назад

And what do you recommend for those of us without this equipment who don't feel as confident in our ability to do this as ourselves as some of the commenters here? I'm struggling to figure out where to find someone to do this for us.

@IndRepair 6 месяцев назад

They sell something called BeadBuster ( amzn.to/421ficj ) that is a tire mount paste. If you spread it all around the rim in between the tire in all open spots it will seal and allow you to get the tire back on the bead much easier Many tire shops will do this, get it back on the bead that is. Most places will not replace a tire that small because it is very time consuming. If you can not find someone locally to do it order a new tire/rim assembly

@sandramichaud8033 Год назад

You’re so cool! “Until it looks good”. Yep.

@IndRepair Год назад

Not sure what you are talking about but I'll take it! Thanks for watching haha

@sandramichaud8033 Год назад

@@IndRepair I meant it was explained and you made it look easy. It worked for me. I didn’t bother with the ratchet but sort of kicked the tire and sort of stood on it to get it in a better position. You said ratchet it until it looks good, not sure what that meant but it worked. My weight added the pressure that your ratchet did. 69 y.o.

@bismarkbizmark5639 Год назад

Why do you take the valve stem out?

@IndRepair Год назад

When you take the valve stem out you get a better volume of air to flow into the tire. For stubborn or ridgid tires it helps get it sealed to the bead. Thanks for watching!

@vnorvi 5 месяцев назад

Dang. Why didn’t I think of that.

@IndRepair 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching!

@swiv99 Год назад

and the most important tool you need is the air compressor :)

@IndRepair Год назад

That's the truth!! Thanks for watching!!

@JonathanBrune Год назад

If you take the valve stem out, how do you get air into the tire from your compressor? All my air tools require the valve stem.

@IndRepair Год назад

The core is removed to allow for quick air into the tire. Once the bead seats quickly put the core back in and inflation back to full pressure. Air chuck will seal to the outside of the valve stem while airing up

@JonathanBrune Год назад

@@IndRepair Thank you for your reply. When I remove the core the air doesn't flow through my chuck.

@IndRepair Год назад

I had to do a little research on this because I have never seen this happen. I have several air chucks here and all the non clip on type use the valve stem to allow air into the tire. They do not require a valve cover installed to work. They do make some that use the valve core to allow air into the tire apparently so you must have this style

@jeffbengr 6 месяцев назад

No need to take the valve stem out. He has a much fancier air chuck setup than most of us are going to have at home, and it pushes air into the tire much faster without valve stem. Just strap the tire, add air with the chuck you already have, release the strap, finish filling. Just did it, didn't remove the valve stem, and it works like a charm! (p.s. thank you OP for the video, took 5 minutes, and I think I have the exact or very similar snowblower you have!)

@IndRepair 6 месяцев назад

If the bead is very stiff the valve core trick works better. The core is removed to allow for quick air into the tire. Once the bead seats quickly put the core back in and inflation back to full pressure. Air chuck will seal to the outside of the valve stem while airing up

@m600blu 6 месяцев назад

If I can figure out how to get the damn cheap ass tire off at her, I just go by Solid wheels

@IndRepair 6 месяцев назад

Yeah the tire/rim assembly is best purchased together because they are almost impossible to get back on the rim without ruining it

@samburke8595 9 месяцев назад

Definitely DOESNT work if you don't have an air compressor, which is 95% of users!!!!

@IndRepair 9 месяцев назад

An air compressor is a necessity for owning lawn/garden or snow removal equipment with inflatable tires. You can take it off to a tire shop or spend a small amount of money on something that will come in handy over and over again (you will save half the cost using this method with a compressor instead of having a tire shop do it) Thanks for watching!
