How To: Installing 9:00-16 tires on CMP wheels

[Bob Carriere]

The fun part.

The first few tires we installed we used just brute force then a truck tire dealer sold me a left over tire lubricating compound for 5 bucks... best money ever spent and we still have enough for x number of tires as you need very little.

For this exercise I really spead it on thick so it could be visible. You need a pair of disposable rubber gloves and you just scoop it up in your hand and smear it generously on the tire bead and the rim bottom half.

now for the Pics..

Pic 22& 23 the Snoth bucket..... we had to warm it up by the furnace so it would flow. It is a vegetable based thick goo.... we have about 3 inches left or 5 years worth. No smell can't tell you what it tastes like but Grant was forever threathening me to wipe his hand on my face as I had use a liberal amount.
