fastbanshee8 Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 No. Just make sure the tire bead is clean, along with the inside of the rim, where the bead seats. Soapy water sprayed on the tire bead helps it seat up a little easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAVAGE420 Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 I use just i light coating of tire slime. Or if i don't have that at the time, i just use a light coating of wheel bearing grease :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Rollins Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 Yes, Dont use tire soap to mount them. Use water only. Place a wratchet strap on the outer tread area around the tire and tighten it to help you seat the bead on the rim while you air it up. Good luck. I usually go to discount tire for $4.50 per tire its cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
