Thanks from the bottom of my heart I was looking for a lot of videos, finally Scotty you the only one who made it in one video with a brief short explanation but helpful a lot 😊
Hey Scotty please help me, is the 2009 Lexus IS 220d a good buy or not(with manual 6 speed) . Thank you
I have that same digital gauge. Got it almost 20 years ago. I've had to change the battery a couple times but it is still accurate.
Why the NH references Scotty!
scotty what tire gauge should i buy, there is no link
This is true. I've died like 8 times using these tires.
🤣
Lolll

Just get her aligned, sooner rather than later😆
A wife can be under or over inflated, worn out, or out of alignment. now if her front end is functioning properly, she is a keeper.
When does Scotty have time to repair cars when he puts out youtube videos every 25 minutes?
Scotty do all his best to do as many videos as possible to make money as long as he is physically able to do, he wants to secure his retirement life when he no longer will be able to do it, majority of people will do exactly that so its perfectly all right, Scotty is the best!

Never cheap out on tires.
sometimes when dough is low we have to.😁
Buff Barnaby well don’t cheap out on brand at least! Get 75% tread on good brands like BFG or something

Unfortunately, those tires are very reliable. Even the ones made in China. They come in all different sizes and colors. They have a lifetime warranty. And, last but not least, THEY'RE FREE!!!! 😁
@@electron7659 😆 lol.
I swear scotty is in my head 😂 he's always making videos I'm needing and thinking about. This video couldn't have come at a better time! Winter is coming!👍
My gf went on a long trip, and when she came back one of the tires had a spot on the sidewall about to pop with steel wires sticking out. Another time we went on a short trip. We got there with no issues. But, coming back as soon as we got onto the onramp, the car started shaking. We pulled over and I inspected all the tires. One of the rear tires was bulged out so far it was unbelievable that it hadn't finished bursting. The spare tire had very low pressure, just enough to hold it up so we crawled to the nearest air pump.
I ensured that we now have an air pump in the trunk.
One thing to note: do NOT use tire sealants if you have TPMS, it will destroy your sensors. They may say "TPMS safe" but they are not. Lesson learned the hard way.
I had same issues with Chinese made tires, were yours made in China too?
You shouldn't be using tire sealants, anyway.

People seem to buy a car that exceeds their income level to impress people but then buy the most inexpensive tire to save money. Most people never check their tire pressure weekly. Tire pressure per manual of vehicle NOT max pressure on actual tire. 🔥
Scotty, I love you!!!! I wish I could put this on repeat in my shops waiting area! Absolutely perfect tire info!!! You are the BEST!!!!

@@davidmichalik8375 thanks!!!! I will look into that!!!
My tire was low on air and the edges became square, so I threw on the spare and drove my Corvair when the weather was less than fair to the diner for a steak that is medium rare. I should replace the tires as a pair, since the other side is showing wear and the car itself is in need of repair....even the headliner is starting to tear, but I don't care. My wife is having an affair and I'm losing my hair. If she leaves she gets to keep the BelAir. It's all too much to bear.
Life is unfair.

1:40 I love Scotty’s frame management and art direction.
Got it :
when I see CORDS change the tire after all SCOTTY I’m cheap like you I wanna get my moneys worth !!! 🤣
You sound like my dad. If it holds air, good enough. If it didn't, replace it with another used tire. All this while driving up north in the snow. Once I bought my own car, I learned the value of buying good tires.
@@robertheinkel6225 Problem is, no one wants to sell used tires anymore. At least in the mid-sized town I live in
After a few close calls, I change all four tires whenever they reach about 40% wear. Screw economy, I need safety especially in th rain. On the other hand I have very cheap 16 inch 185 width tires, so good tires only cost $120 each.
I love how the tyre is worn thru the rubber, and he points out the wear indicators on the bit that's passable. 😆
Nah we run them tires until the air shows 😂😂
Thanks a lot. This video is more than a money saver this is car saver. Many people do more than 1 or 2 of these things you mentioned. I feel like a mechanic the more and more I watch your videos.
The best wear indicator is when you slip and slide during the first rain
Brand new tires sometimes slide because of the slippery new surface. That's why some high performance tires come shaved...
@Brian Crawford I wasn't giving you an option, I was just explaining to you why you may have been sliding on new tires. If you think your life is not worth more than a couple of hundred extra miles, that's your decision.
j freed well michelins are junk so
I had a bulge in my tire nit long ago, definitely from a pothole. I live in the ghetto so nothing gets done around here, soooo many potholes and horrible, old roads. I got some new tires, Goodyear ones and the right size, too. (They were smaller than they should have been.) My car runs so much smoother its amazing
My late husband had a spare tire around his mid section. I never liked the tread design so I clipped most of it off and then gave him an "alignment" if you know what I mean. He screamed louder than you but he stayed straight......
Had a set of original equipment Goodyear Forterra HL tires on a used car. I couldn’t see the cause of vibration, but one shop finally diagnosed the problem. Ended up with a new set of Michelin’s and it was like a had a new car. They never experienced the cupping problem.
I once took my '76 Cutlass to Firestone for a front end alignment. Four hours later I returned and my car was in the same spot I left it. I went inside and was told they can't align the front end because the FUEL PUMP was leaking. I left and never went to a Firestone again. That was 35 years ago. I drove that Cutlass for another 8 years before I let it go. Never did change the fuel pump.
Hey Scottie, i really like your shows because it helps a lot of your fans like me maintain our cars better. Gives us some laugh at the same time. Thanks a lot!
i went to collage to be a mechanic and everything scotty says is true and if u find a good honest mechanic keep going to him
Trade School not College.
If you went to college you'd know how to spell! Dufus
You missed English 101
Take it easy on him he said he went to Collage.
@@keithbohon2438 I go to a community college for auto and I'm taking English 101 what you tryna say😂
I just got a alignment yesterday afyer I changed inner and outer tire rod ends ball joints and control arms he had to aline all 4 tires and shave my shock mount to make the front tire sit right and put new tires now it's smooth ridding crazy how Scotty knows what's going on lmao
I think people make too big of a deal about tire wear. I've been driving and doing my own vehicle maintenance for about 25 years. I always run tires until the tread is almost gone. I will only change them early if there is a bulge out of the sidewall or any other damage to the sidewall. knock on wood, I have only had one blowout and that was from hitting a chunk of concrete from a landscaping truck. Luckily, that was the only tire i have had to change from the side of the road too.
Now that I live in the city with all the used tire shops I haven't bought new tires in about 10 years. I can usually get used tires with 70-90% tread for half the price of new, sometimes less. Sometimes its hard to find matching sets of used but it seems fairly easy to find them in pairs. I don't just put used tires on junk vehicles that i will only be driving a year or two, I put them on nice vehicles i want to keep because It saves me money over the long run. I may have to replace tires every 3 or 4 years instead of every 5 but when you are doing it for less than half the cost its a lot easier on the pocket book.
There's a name for what you're doing -- it's called: "Penny wise, Pound foolish."
F**king nickle-snatchers never learn !!
@@SlikLizrd you are right!! after saving a thousands of dollars on tires and never having a problem doing it I'm having trouble seeing where my "penny snatching" ways have steered me wrong. You can go back to convincing old ladies that they need to spend $1000 to buy a new set of junk Goodyear from you now chuck.
@@marchawk3080 From your comment, it appears that you are MUCH too immature to understand the concept behind "Penny Wise - Pound Foolish".
"old ladies" ?? -- "1000 dollar tires" ?? "Junk Goodyears" ??
You should have stayed in school, kid.
@@marchawk3080 If you're happy putting around on used tires (that somebody else got rid of), it's no skin off MY nose.
Over 60 years of driving experience in many different types of vehicles, and in all climates, has proven to me that NEW tires are the safest (wrecks cost MONEY!), most economical (in the long run), and provide the greatest peace-of-mind during our long-distance, high-speed touring through the American West.
@@SlikLizrd used tires are almost never tires that someone got rid of. Almost all of them come from salvage vehicles and still have assloads of life left on them. They usually throw away anything under 50% tread. Tires with 50-70% tread are 1/3 the price of new. Tires with 70-90% tread are about 1/2 price of new.
I got 40k miles out of the factory Goodyear on my '14 RAM after i bought it new. I bought a used pair of Firestones that i put on the front for $120 and a used pair of Michelin i put on the back for $100, both were 80+% tread. I have 35k on this used combination now and I at least have another year left to go on them. This is my smaller gas truck that i use in my business which is hauling trailers. I use it for local deliveries thats why the mileage is so low compared to my diesel. My diesel wasn't purchased new and i haven't paid as close of attention to the tires o have on it.
I am just trying to let people know what has worked for me. Anytime i can find a way to not pay retail price i feel like i won. I know that a lot of the older generation (who come from the 50-70's era when you could buy a new car with 2 months pay) like the false piece of mind that you can get from paying retail prices at stores. Some folks out there just need to get down the road as cheap as possible. That's the situation i was in not too long ago and it taught me a few things. I was just trying to pass on some of what I have learned.
Thanks Scotty. My AWD Subaru’s back tires just signed at me for an alignment.
What did the road say to the tire?
Dont tread on me!
Scotty: cant we all just alignment along??????
*SCOTTY...
WoW.... ANOTHER JAM PACKED FANTASTIC VIDEO ...
YOU CAN NEVER HAVE TOO MUCH TIRE INFORMATION !
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE HOW YOU COVER EVERY ASPECT OF a TOPIC.
THANK YOU AGAIN !
Sincerely,
SGT. E. G. ROCK
last time I was this early the tread on my tires was DEEP
How deep? 5/8"? 3/4"?
Good man Scotty and your videos are good videos. You are a Superman Mechanic. Intelligent, knowledgeable, funny, helpful, etc etc. So many people must be wishing that you would be their mechanic.
If the tread is gone it will turn into drag tires, just take it to the drag strip... lol 😝😝😝😂🤣
@Eze&Yare Dominguez More importantly they have been through tons of heat cycles and they are probably dry and hard as a rock with absolutely zero grip. Your tires are like your skin, and they have moisture and oils in them that break down and evaporate over time.
Dual purpose tires, you can use it on the road and track, and its dot approved, they are performance tires suitable for on roads and on track.
One thing that should be done before an alignment, is a wheel balance, I always make sure all wheels are balanced before doing an alignment. I don't like customers coming back for the same problem.
This video is a true public service.
got to love all the videos! Thanks Scotty. While I sit at work its nice to get a pop up of a new tip! :D
Although the tread is good and I haven't put a lot of miles on my 1964 Ford Pickup F250 the tires are starting to crack along the tread on the side walls and the tires must be about 11 years old so today I am changing the tires to another new set of Bridgestone tires at Costco. That is the 2 things that are most important on any vehicle and that is brakes and tires.
Excellent information Scotty. Thanks
Hey Scotty, really like the way you describe repair issues. One thing i notice in your videos is how there is much less corrosion on the chassis components in Dallas than here in the north. Road salt is a cruel thing to put a car through for 4 or 5 months of the year. Good luck with your move.
Over inflated, that’s prices of cars these days.
I never get "tired" of Scotty's videos! Keep saving me money! Thank you!
Whenever Scotty Kilmers drops the new videos I roll up the fat Woolford and get all schmoked up
Thank you for all your videos! The Education that you are giving has saved me from many mistakes.
🤣 my gf's motto was always "ride em til they pop!" Now I make her buy good USA tires, no more old crackly used tires for $25 bux. Ain't worth your life when a front one blows out on the freeway goin 70 & you lose control & hit a gas truck 🚛🔥
Never cheap out on a mattress, everyday shoes, or tires. Ever.
"ride em til they pop!" Are you sure she is referring to tires???
I quit paying for front end alignments when I finally gave up on getting my truck back wit the steering wheel centered. I’ll do it my self, thanks...
I go to a alignment or suspension only shop. Instead of going to a shop that has more services I try to go to a chain shop. That way I know that the work will be done exceptionally.
I drove my tires until one tire literally fell apart. Money was tight. lol
F-150 been there lmaoo
My last front end alignment came in the form of a flat deck tow truck... Creeeek... Purrfwct
Hey Scotty if you dont drive that Celica you you have flat spots on the tires. Make a video driving it. Thanks
If sticky weights are falling off it can also indicate the wheels are being overheated due to excessive breaking or stuck closed brake calipers. I work at a tire install shop... Sticky weights tend to be a pain to remove and clean the residue, only a few times out of the year do i have the complaint and usually the wheels are scorching hot or the weights were installed on a dirty surface.
Scotty is G.O.A.T
My Dad got me an Accutire guage when I was a teenager. I am now 45 years old and it still works. Finally had to change out the original battery about 5 years ago.
Well no tires for me . Thanks scotty
Scotty, you never cease providing a world of GREAT information, while entertaining at the same time! You are quite a guy! PLEASE, Scotty, keep these videos coming!..Ron K
Visit a reputable tire distributer, one owned and worked by the owner, also ask other car owners for a recommendation as for a trusted dealer. Maintain tire pressure, check it yourself. Scotty is right, you are responsible for your own safety
Sometime, you should give away a free set of tires lol. ;)
Hes cheap,youll get 3.
Nah just a full size spare lol
You can get a full size rim and tire from a junkyard for about $50
Really good video. I'd love to see Scotty review different repair shops in each city to let people know which actually do quality work.
The last time I was this early Scotty was a young mechanic!
I had a spraddle-legged old '68 Impala whose suspension was so worn the front tires were cocked out at a good 20deg, and wore the insides of the tires down to cords in a couple of weeks!
Is there any person who watches scotty and doesn't change his tires at the last possible time
Love these videos , I was a tire changer for few years and learned these things in depth, even training courses, but im guilty of larger tires because my jeep deserves them ☺️😂!!!
Excessively precise but excessively expensive. Just count the threads on your steering linkage compare to each other left and right make sure your steering wheel centered up. And you're good to go. I don't suggest that to anybody but that's what I do.

If my tires could talk they’d tell me to stop flooring it at every stop
Also they try to tell you there's a ticket or injury coming for you when you ignore your tires screams at your bad behaviors.
There are many incompetent alignment shops around, I went to Just Tires, had to go back twice, on my third try I went to another shop, and the first thing the guy says, is that all my adjustment nuts are loose. I used to go to a great shop in LA, Bagge and Sons, but after about 80 years the family retired, now I don't know where to go.
I'm due for new tires soon. Just hate how expensive they are 😭

I pay $10 a tire for the used ones. Sometimes I take the tires from our cop cars when it's time to get new ones 💁 If they'll hold air and pass inspection, I'm game til winter
Tire abuse😂
Forgot to mention that cupping can also be bad wheel bearing. If you see odd wear spots and a humming noise the wheel bearing shot. If wheel starts to shake along with humming noise i would bet the tire shot. Fix asap. Only takes 4 to 6 hrs front bearing or 1 hr back bearing in a drive way with basic tools but be sure to torque castle nut or bearing wear out faster and ruin another tire. He says if back ok only align the front. I would suggest a 4 wheel alignment. Its already in the alignment shop and last alignment i got doing the back at the same time was only like 60 bucks extra. As per if ball joints causing the issue. Well count the number of turns to remove it. Turn the same number or turns back on and i would almost bet no alignment needed. Tell tale sign ball joint wore out is a clunk clunk noise as turning sharp corners.
Hey Scott. Love your videos!!
You can just put about 10% higher pressure when tyre is warm.
Michelin tires turn water purple. And you can stretch them. I've seen really bad tires but they are also scams that make you believe that your tire can be all-season but it doesn't mean its not a good tire, it depends on what you want to do, drive up a mountain road, highway, summer, winter, dirt roads, frozen roads. They are all different. Studs are for icey roads as they do nothing in snow but increase braking distance. Load ratings, speed ratings, tread patterns that have to point a certain way. Smooth tread patterns tend to make less noise.
So...I guess I need to get my inner tubes that I use for tires,refaced walled by Bandag,right Scotty?.(HAHA!!😂)
Flat spots can be because of bad shocks too
I change tires when I receive notes left on my windshield about how my tires are dangerous. It's also a good way to identify people you want to do business with.
Prepare yourselves for the "last time I was this early......" Comments
Make sure to go by the car specification for tire pressure and not the sidewall. This is the main reason for overinflation.
Scotty , your energy is Boundless
Thank you for the teaching and knowledge Scotty, your a blessing.
the tyre rotation picture is great but not if you have tires that are one-directional. If so criss-cross ends up making them spin backwards.
Majority of people love Scotty and most of the time make fun of him the way he does his videos and stuff, its pure entertainment i agree but down the road and in future all what Scotty does and what he says is 100% true and is very informative and people will appreciate this sonner or later, critical informations are passed on and they are priceless in everyday people lives when it comes to car stuff, Scotty is already legend, never will be forgotten!!!
i see a scotty video i hit like, then i watch it. hahahaha!!!!!!
From my experience there is one tire I would stay away from. Otsu tires. Dry was fine but when the road was wet, it was like being on snow. Even though the treads were still good.
Flat spots were a feature of cold bias ply tires.
they would thump until they warmed up.
Nah man I don't need tires I ride on air.
I wish I could teleport too
Where I a in FL. id say 50% of tires are over inflated, they always put in what it says is max pressure on the sidewall.
Good Lord...more common sense.thanks scotty.
If you need new tires buy them ASAP speaking from a experience. I slid out in a rainy day in the highway, lucky I wasn’t injured just some neck pain 🙏🏼
When I was young, the most dangerous tires I knew was my bike without the training wheels 😂
