loading tires ck3510hs

My 2012 CK35 with 15-19.5 R4s came with welded rims and can only be mounted to the hub one way. The wheels cannot be flipped 180*, the tire will hit the frame long before the wheel meets the hub. In my case spacers are the only way to go for a wider stance.

Anyone ever seen a tire that will hold air but not fluid? I let the air out of the tire and started filling. The the wwf starts pouring from the bottom of the tire and water bubbles start forming around the tire. I take the adapter off put vale back in and fill with air with zero leeks.

You broke the bead on the tire...you need to leave some air pressure in the tire when you start filling the tire, just a couple of pounds will usually keep the bead seated. Also don't jack the tire so far off of the ground. You need the weight off of the tire, but have it just barely touching the ground so the the weight of the fluid will rest on the ground, not pull on the tire. When you take the valve stem out, get the adaptor on quickly, (hold thumb over hole to slow down air loss). You will have to let some air out of the tire as you continue to fill, this is what the "burp" button is for on the adaptor, as your pump will not be able to pump fluid in after a while due to the rise in head pressure from the compressing air in the tire. So let out some air and continue pumping. Try again..

That worked great.

Do I need to put 40 psi back in it, that's that the max psi is on the tire?

 

[whis]

on a rear tire 10 to 15 psi is plenty

What does your owners' manual say?

 

[k0ua]

I would suggest what the owners manual says to run. Mines says 20, and that is what I did. 40 sounds high to me.

That worked great.

Glad I could help you.
