[@MrSkippyHandleman]

I just wanted to thank you for making this video. I'm nearly 50 years old and brand new to kart racing (aside from the arrive & drive businesses). I bought myself a 125cc TaG kart and learned that I needed a different brand of tires to race in my region. After purchasing a second set of wheels and a bunch of tires, I tuned into KZbin for some tire changing tips. I kept finding videos of guys doing it by hand and making it look so easy, so I dove in armed with a bowl of soapy water and my tired, beat up, nearly 50 year old hands. Miraculously, I got my first tire changed, but I think the planets may have all been aligned for that brief moment that the second bead popped on because no matter how much pushing, pulling, prying, and twisting... and countless four letter words, I couldn't recreate my first success. I went back to KZbin to do more tip finding, and that's when I came across your video, and had my first exposure to tire scissor tongs. You were not kidding when you said it is the best tool in a kart racer's collection. I absolutely love those things. So much that I was a little disappointed once I had finished mounting my race and practice wheels sets, and had no more tires to mount. So thank you for introducing me to that ingenious tool and for doing a tutorial of how to use it in your video. It was a life (and hand) saver for me. Happy karting!

[@PowerRepublic]

Thanks heaps for tuning in and sharing the videos sucesss. I always wondered why it is so popular for such a simple task. Essentially it’s a product video. Always, glad you enjoyed it and found it helpful. Enjoy your kart racing, it’s a hell of a ride !!!!

[@johnturner2215]

​@PowerRepublic one of the reasons it's so popular is every tire change I'm going back to look at it again and again.... don't take this personally but the moment my Mrs hears your voice if she enters the garage she leaves immediately.... the cue that I'm frustrated that things aren't going well 😂😂

[@samuelbrownfield]

Thanks mate from the states! I watch this every time to remind myself what I’m doing on my kids kart.

[@PowerRepublic]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@zrmracing]

Great video mate. I started karting a few months ago and changing tyres was probably the most daunting thing at first. It took 6 hours to do it the first time. Every time after, I have come back to this video and it helps so much and really well explained. Now it doesn’t even take 1 hour. Keep up the good work mate.

[@PowerRepublic]

Hey Mate. Thanks for the good vibes. Yeah that’s what the vids are there for. Some of the basics, explained in the easiest way possible I know.

Happy to help! thanks heaps for tuning in and watching the videos. did you get a POWER REPUBLIC t-shirts yet ?

[@luismauriciomartinez-pd9ks]

First time I did it myself, and what you do in 5 minutes it takes me 5 hours literally. I didn’t grease the wheels and bead of the tire and when I inflate it the bead get stuck and don’t pass to the end of the wheel. I learned it is very important to follow every single instruction from those who know.

[@PowerRepublic]

thanks for watching legend !!

[@jasonleslie6366]

Sitting the tires in the sun beforehand to heat up, like putting them in your car, also makes it easier to mount and dismount kart tires.

[@PowerRepublic]

yeah I reckon Jason, those DFM's definitely strengthen your 'Fingercepts'

[@CRTracing69x]

Put them in the oven on low

[@sonny.v925]

Mate, it must be summer in your shop or maybe you put these tires in the oven for 30 mins before this video. It's never this easy! lol. Great demonstration though. Much appreciated. I recently purchased a tire tool like that. It is must have.

[@PowerRepublic]

Great tip, thanks Louis, sounds like you might have learnt the hard waY ;)

[@gabrielferrieras4841]

Hello There are many identical videos but all of them use old tires for reassembly which are much more flexible and therefore very easy to fit… You are the first to use new rear tyres. I tried a scissor for the first time: removing and refitting the front tires: very easy, removing the rear tires very easy. Reassembly of the rear tires: impossible. I will try the "trick" you give: press on the center of the tire to facilitate the insertion of the cleats on the rim. I think that's the solution. But since you're rather "sturdy" and seem to force a lot. I made an extension for the scissor arms (simple 20mm*20mm square tube that fits over the scissor arms - I think 35cm would be enough). Next time I'll try your technique. It's nice to find an honest video on the subject.. With thanks

[@PowerRepublic]

Thanks for the positive vibes bro and for watching and hopefully sharing the videos

[@foxairandheatinc8345]

Nice video. Thanks for the tips. I'm sure a lot of folks may not have the cool tools yet and would like to see it done the old school way. Had to figure it out myself the hard way. Bead breaker is a must regardless!!

Thanks a lot for these videos!!. They have really helped me a lot. We use Envinco tires here in the US and they have arrows indicating which way to mount the tire in relation to the forward direction the kart rolls. Not sure if the Maxxis tires are the same or if it really matters.

[@xChristine]

I heard those scissor things can hurt your rim, so it's better to do it by hand if you can. I just changed all four of my slicks and put 4 rain tires on new rims by hand. Then I promptly bought the tire changing scissors for next time because hell if I'm going through THAT again. I'll just buy new rims when the time comes.

[@PowerRepublic]

yeah its a mission by hand

[@jacobhobbsracing]

Great video... really helped me out..... thank you. Can you recommend a suitable portable air compressor that has enough power to pop the tyres when inflating. I need something that works on the go when at the circuit. I don't have mains power so ideally something that can run on 12v or is rechargeable. Thank you.

[@PowerRepublic]

Makita 18v battery power is what we use www.google.com.au/search?q=makita+18v+airpump&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-au&client=safari#

[@davidsaez8691]

thank you very much for your videos. high quality, good content. My son has a Rotax Micro MAX so trying to learn how to tune it, he is 8 years old and I have the feeling the kart is not doing its best, got it almost new second hand 1 and a half years ago. I think It can be tuned for better or worst performance, correct? thanks again for sharing your knowledge, really appreciate from Spain. Regards.

[@PowerRepublic]

Hola David. Thanks for the positive vibes. The Micro Max are excellent for the young drivers. Do you get many drivers over in Spain with the Rotax? When the drivers are so young it's hard to tell if the kart and engine are really holding the driver back, because we all learn how to do things at different speeds. In my experience, the more times you go to the track and practise, the faster your driver will progress. More so than the latest and greatest chassis with all the changes to it's set up. If you're overwhelmed by the technical side of the sport, relax. That is totally normal feeling. Just remember , karting is a fun thing to do with your children, especially when they are under 10 years old.

[@davidsaez8691]

@@PowerRepublic yes, there are quite a few children driving Rotax. In the current place we are racing now there are more Pumas 85 c.c., which seem to be faster than the Rotax Micro. You are right, the best thing is to let the children enjoy, some parents are very strict with their children since 6, 7, 8 and put a lot of pressure on them, really sad.

[@ΝίκοςΝταβώνης]

Nice video! What is the rotation of the tire and how can you tell?

[@PowerRepublic]

the tyres normally have a direction of rotation arrow on them on one side of the tyre wall.

[@marioalves7610]

Hey quick question do I need to run the bead locks on the maxis sports in tag

[@PowerRepublic]

Not really. Unless you have really low (6-7psi) tyre pressures and sticky tyres, don’t think that they are essential

[@RC-wn5ey]

Hi guys, absolutely love your videos, I've learnt a heap of stuff, thank you !!! I'm having a fair bit of trouble seating the bead of the new tire on the rim. I've used proper tire bead wax and warm water with dishwashing detergent. I inflate the tires (Maxxis) to about 60-70 psi and I am worried about going any higher. One side will usually pop but the other side either doesn't go on at all or only partially goes on. I've tried taking the valve out of the stem as well but nothing seems to work! Any tricks or tips? Should i go higher pressure? or just keep perservering with the current technique? You guys make it seem so easy lol. Any advice is greatly appreciated. I should also say they're the Rookie Maxxis tires going onto OTK AXJ rims - it's my son's kart.

[@PowerRepublic]

Hey RC, thanks heaps for tuning in, hope to see you one day at a track in your POWER REPUBLIC tee shirt ;) with the the tyres, I pump them up to about 50-55 psi. normally one side of the tyre will be up and the other stuck down. put the pumped tyre under the bead breaker again, with the up side under the blade, and use some pressure to push it half way down. that should make the other side pop up. then release the pressure and your golden!!!

[@robweb74]

Love this guys video

[@PowerRepublic]

@@robweb74 thanks for watching

[@warriorwal]

thanks for this. quick question - what sort of air compressor are you using to get sufficient airflow to push the tyre onto the rim edges? I found a basic one doesn't seem to work, and I tried one with a small tank, but it didn't have enough power to get the tyre in the right spot.

[@PowerRepublic]

Maybe try tyre lube on the bead of the tyre and on the rim? it might help your compressor. We have a workshop size 240V compressor that has 3 pistons and about 270litres a minute of CFM if that helps. But i have a small compressor 12V in my go kart trailer and it works fine too. I would try the lube first. Hope that helps.

[@jaybo8204]

Hi There. I have one question. When you have pumped up the tyre and it has locked onto the bead of the wheel, do you then further tighten the bead lock screws or do you leave them alone. Thanks.

[@PowerRepublic]

Yeah hand tighten them so that the O rings seal on the bead screw and rim.

[@adv-moto-rider7216]

Do you use Tyre inflation rings? Just see so many people cranking in the PSI to pop the bead and have always wondered if the Tyre is being tortured?, with a Tyre ring more emphasis would be placed on the actual bead helping to keep Tyre patch settled?

[@PowerRepublic]

ADV-MOTO-Rider 72 great comment. I use the Lube on the rims and set the air pressure on our compressor to 60psi.

[@loadeddog8015]

[@Vikitech5]

I saw on youtube also about ballancing the tiers is that nessosary too

[@PowerRepublic]

only if your rims are out of balance, mostly for the the front tyres

[@brianallen1396]

Derek...I have lots of problems getting new rear mojo D5 tyres to seal and initially build air pressure due to the excessive leakage from the gap between the bead area and rim. I have tried inflating with the valve core removed but a lot of air pressure still escapes. Any tips to get them to seal initially... Thanks Brian from Ireland.

[@PowerRepublic]

Hey Brian, I think from memory the D2's were a mission as well to get going on the bead. I think that you put the air gun on the valve, pull the trigger to get the air flowing and then.....punch the tyre in the centre of the tread hard and fast ( like a fast jab punch but with the hammer fist style) and that is sometimes enough to get them started. Also too, try not to stack the tyres on top of each other during storage cause it make the tyres compress a bit more and then its harder to get them started with the air.

[@p.c.h.6721]

When that happens, just put you knee on the tyre and at the same time give it air, that way always works. Good luck.

[@andrewprocario]

Hey Derek what is the type of drill you use to take the 10mm copper wheel nuts on/off? I've tried using a 3/8" impact drill in the past but that only leads to stripping the copper wheel nuts when tightening/loosening.

[@PowerRepublic]

I use the Makita impact driver (same as what a chippie uses for driving wood screws) with the torque setting turned down to level 2

[@kennkart]

Hi PowerRepublic. Do you have a video about different brands? Such as maxxis vs mojo?

[@PowerRepublic]

Not really. Just play around with pressures at your local track. Try 2 psi high, then 2 psi low of recommended start pressure. That way you should be able to pick the trend you like the feel of

I'm an old bloke and can remove and replace tyres by mounting the rim(after breaking the beads) on a spike fastened in a vise and doing it by hand with a little lube

[@PhilSalvestrin]

Hey Dez, you hear various stories about not letting tyres sit around & get too old before you use them, once the get over 12mths old they’re not as good, the odd bad batch, etc. but what’s the reality? You can have car tyres sitting around for ages without them going off so I figure karting tyres would have to be similar… Have you been keeping an eye on the Coast 2 Country results?

[@PowerRepublic]

yeah fresh tyres are best. if they are old they will harden with age for some reason I am not familiar with.

[@everynameipickisunav]

Watch everyone doing tires. Everyone has their own technique. Take bits and pieces to what is most efficient for you. I watched someone fold tires by hand and they were quick. Problem is I could not fold an envinco blue by hand due to the raw strength, I could however mimic it by using my knees to fold the tire in the same place. There is never any tire lube in the pits so I use foaming glass cleaner on the bead being careful not to get it inside of the tire (basically spray it on your hand and wipe around the tire bead only).

[@PowerRepublic]

Hell yeah ….adapt and overcome

Hey Kori. Spin them 90 degrees, then let go. If they stay still they are balanced. If the heavy spot drops to the bottom, then add some sticky back lead weights to the top and repeat the first step again.
