being a tire sucks
Here is a bias ply, 8 inch rimmed trailer tire with the air pulled out of it.
I pulled a gentile vacuum, filled to 30psi with CO2. Blead CO2 down to 23psig and filled with 404a till it was at 55psi.
The max pressure on the side wall is 60psi for this tire.
Looks like this will be the first on road test.
After weeks of checking pressure on CO2 filled and CO2/404a filled tires, yeilding results about as dramatic and dynamic as watching a tree grow. Its time for another small step.
