BEST METHOD is to use a Diamond Point bit such as a Dremel 7144 which works significantly better than ANY drill bit can! Much quicker, cleaner cuts, and without any smoke. The 7144 bit also results in the perfect size hole as well, ~2.5mm. If the rubber is really soft and sticky, a drill bit can bind and not only completely destroy the tire, but also result in injury.

I tried this to get water out of my truggy tires. They were wobbling so badly I was afraid for my chassis. It was very violent. Well turns out the water was expelled very efficiently. I had to clean my apartment ceiling. And walls. And curtains. And couch. No more wobble though.

This is awesome and so simple. Vented all my tires from all cars, even without removing them. Also, I used to hold a car whilst venting (as you can imagine - it's a mess) ... How did I not think that I can simply put the car upside-down and give it a full throttle run for a few seconds... Great tips, thank you so much! ❤

It definitely works... but the foam will deteriorate more quickly when it becomes wet.also mold. Best to get a belted tire or custom build a set with a duct-tape wrap on the inside of tire,assemble and no Ballon. Always need holes.lol.no on speed run or dry cars.i cover vent holes in water and high dirt areas.

If dirt gets in from a vented rim, isn't the dirt under the foam? How will that dirt get through the foam to get out of a vented tire? Should a vented rim be sealed once the tire is vented to prevent dirt from getting in on the underside of the foam? Not many people have high speed dremels, I just use a soldering iron and it works great, seals so no tearing, probably is a stronger hole than cutting with a drill.

I would hesitate strongly to puncture the tires on my Jlb cheetah. The rims already have vent holes, and can be easily sealed off with duct tape. I take mine when we go ice fishing, so it is in contact with snow, water, etc. Better not to get the foreign materials in, than having to clean them out later, I figure.

yes but how does dirt and water get out even if you put tape thats not 100% waterproof he explains it very well why there should be holes on the outside its a physics thing he says but I've been doing the venting on the seem of the tire for 5 years and its a well known trick to balance tires and self clean them. my traxxas has vent holes on the rim but before i did the trick of putting actually on the tire and on the outside the tire felt very unbalanced and squirting water 💦 out of the tini tiny hole on the rim.

@RCReviewChannel
@RCReviewChannel 5 ай бұрын
When you vent, it actually baloons less. Thus more traction. The reason it balloons when unvented is air has weight and the trapped air inside is pushed out with centrifugal force.

@@RCReviewChannel that is true. So I drilled two holes at 12 and 6 o clock. But still get a lot of ballooning. Would it mean the tires are unbalanced? Or I probably need to make the holes larger. Or my last resort would be belted tires. Thank you for your response sir. I watch your channel a lot!

@thefunstuff6121
@thefunstuff6121 3 жыл бұрын
I agree that venting on the tread will help to keep a high speed tyre cleaner internally, venting the side wall of crawler tyres is a much better option. Venting has nothing to do with ballooning though. It is centrifical force on the foam that causes ballooning. If you have tyres that aren't glued yet, put tyre foam bands on the foam then assemble and the ballooning will decrease by about 70%
@RCReviewChannel
@RCReviewChannel 3 жыл бұрын
disagree. vented and unvented tires behave completely different at high speed, everything else being equal. Unvented tires look like a knife edge at speed.

If the rim is vented, you will have a problem, but if the tire is vented, it should perform better. Also, if your rims are already vented, you NEED to vent the tires, or else you are going to get water, dust and sand stuck in the tires.

I would think for a crawler you wouldn’t want to vent since you’re not going fast enough to balloon the tires, but I’m a noob so I dunno. Maybe if you’re doing some serious elevation change maybe? Beats me.
