Def not fake =)
And is rly handy when stranded somewhere in the Arctic circle without any spare rims for your toyota hilux supercab (thinking about TopGear) ![]()
It doesn't inflate the tire, it just sets the bead. It just looks like it is inflated because the vehicle is on a jack. There would be 0 air pressure in the tire.
WD-40 works perfectly for this.

This is used by any car with that tiresize. The problem with such big tires is, that no compressor on earth is capable of pressing that much air in that short period of time, to make the tire "stick" to the rim, so, from obvious reasons, they use this kind of explosion. #6 you are right, but you can see they are puting the compressor on, the explosion just helpes the tire to stick to the rim. I hope i managed to make you understand.

Used to do this with construction, logging and farm equipment tires all the time, but it is definitely frowned on by your labour safety regulators.

u cant actualy expect people to take these sorts of vid seriously. this is against ever sort of health and safety regulation out there, there is no way possible that people would carry out these sorts of activities : /
It's not exactly the same as they did in TopGear, in TopGear they inflated the tire with gas instead of just spraying it onto the rim.
This is not something that will work everytime and the way these germans are doing it is more dangerous than inflating the tire with gas.
#21 don't think it's east european either. I'd say it's Norwegian. I recognize the registrationplate and some of the words they say in the vid.
The chemicals used here burn, causing the fluid to expand to a gas, which seats the tire.
There is no explosion.
