That's why they're going back to innertubes and non-sealing rims.

Everyone knows you have to purge your tires like you do with an new propane tank to remove all that nasty moisture and oxygen, don't get me started on the trace elements!

If I have to go through all that trouble, I'd replace them. I'm just **** that way.

Right I just had my last package imported from Yuma before it turned cold here, but I think they screwed me on the shipping. I didn't like the way they packed it.

Canning your own air? Next you'll be telling us you brew your own moonshine too.

Let's be careful here folks. FTE doesn't allow us to talk about illegal activities and we're treading awful close when we start talking about DIY air canning, unless you're federally licensed of course. But then, if you are licensed, then you're a professional and do it for a living, which means you still can't really discuss this because of FTE guidelines Ford Truck Enthusiasts - Discussion Forum Guidelines governing selling on the forum.

If you wanna sell on the forum, you have to be a paid supporting vendor, like Clay is.

Let's make sure we don't get this thread locked guys.

Thanks!

Stewart

I like to go hiking and can my own. Sure it's a bit thinner, but it's really crisp and a lot cleaner.
