never to old to learn some thing new
« on: August 20, 2013, 08:21:19 pm »
A customer brought a wheel in of his 06 rav 4  - for a new  tyre  but the tyre  machine  was having  trouble breaking the bead of the rim..Now we all have heard of run flat tyres but Toyota put a band in the rim that is attached to the alloy

When I worked for vw the touraeg (can't spell it) had a very strange spare wheel...a non inflated tyre? That looks like the smallest profile that would even make the air ride fags jealous...it expands as you drive and makes a full tyre or summit like that..there getting technical lol
