- Super easy fix to get rid of that tire wobble. This happens when a tire is very grippy and tight...it sometimes has a hard time seating all the way around the rim. With a little application of soapy water the tire will be able to fully seat properly and get you rolling without that silly tire wobble.

Great tip for people who struggle seating the tire. Two things: First, I do this with a spray bottle and you don't have to take the tire out of the rim. Just deflate it and spray soapy water with the bottle and inflate again and voila!. Second: it's always better to go tubeless :)
Does this method works with tubeless tires? I dont wanna contaminate the sealant with soapy water.
@@cardace2691 I usually seat the tires first and then add the sealant by the stem valve.
I mean, does deflating the tire and spraying soapy water to the tires contaminate the sealant inside?
Nevermind, i found out that the problem was in the tire bead itself. I guess its not fixable haha
@@cardace2691 so what did you do? Did you returned the tire or used just as it was. Does it affect your riding?
Had the same issue, searched on youtube, opened this video, watched 2min and solved my wobble tire in 5min. Thank you!
*THANK YOU* This saved me a $300 trip to the shop. A few tips from personal experience:
1) Use more soap than water. I had a whole giant squirt of Dawn dishwashing soap, with just a dash of water from the kitchen sink sprayer to bubble it up a tad.
*NOTE* You don't want to use oil or silicone lubricant. Those remain slippery. Soap dries up and becomes tacky. Once the tire is in place you want it to stay there.
2) Use a fat chunk of sidewalk chalk to mark places where the bead of the tire is unevenly tucked. On my tire there was a very distinct line to follow along the edge of the rim, and it was pretty obvious where it had not popped far enough out.
3) Marked both the sidewall and the tread, and spin the tire to confirm that the wobbling was happening right at the chalk. It clearly was for mine.
4) Deflate the tire, and apply generous amounts of soap to the sidewall and rim only where you've marked with chalk. The rest of the tire is seated already, so leave it alone.
5) CAUTION: I would highly recommend researching the PSI limits of your rim and tire before moving on.
6) Slowly and consistently inflate the tire. My bike pump has a gauge, which helped tremendously. I inflated to about 20psi and worked the tire back and forth again with my hands.
7) I went to the absolute limit of both the rim and tire. I also hit the spot with a dead-head hammer (rubber with sand inside) to convince it. This was sufficient for the spot on my back tire.
8) My front tire only had one bad spot, but it didn't want to budge. I had to actually go over the rated pressure (60 psi vs. 50) to get it to pop. It didn't do it right away. It took about a minute.
9) After the tires were seated, I backed off the pressure to get it back within the normal range for the rim/tire.
10) I did not remove either tire from the bike. This worked with the bike upside-down on a flattened box on the garage floor.
11) After cleaning up, I rode the bike, and I couldn't believe the improvement. It rode like new. I couldn't be happier.
What a relief! I recently swapped the tires on my MTB and immediately felt that the bike was wobbly specially the rear end. I figured out that the tire wall was not aligned correctly along the rim but had no idea how to fix it. This video saved me a ton of time and frustration. 👍👍👍
Nice! Glad it worked for you!
I just bought a new tyre and it had the exact same problem as the old one, if only I had watched your video first, I could have saved myself some money 😂
Sick and tyred (pun intended) of putting my trust in to UA-camrs whom I believe know better. Watched a video of one guy who told us to knead the tyre around the rim and then deflate it then knead the tyre and pump it. Tired again and again and again to no avail and thought I’d just ride the bike like a clown bike in the circus. Watched your video and came to the conclusion that I’ve always come to. The simple things are usually the best things. Now I have no wobble. Was a little scary as my pump doesn’t have a pressure gauge so pumped with faith. Two pops later, no wobble. Didn’t work for me with the soap suds first time or second… probably because I lost my nerves with the pump so I used WD40 and there you go. Sir you are a legend for keeping it real and keeping it simple, as life should be. Long may you reign. B
I've been dealing with the tire wobble for so long...I tried this and IT WORKED !!!!!!!!!! THANKS !!!!!!
DUDE!!!! Thank YOU!!!! How did I not know this?
I was so angry my 90$ a pop, Vee Huntsman fat tires were doing this! I was about to get different tires but so dreading replacing them again. My e-bike has a hub motor in each wheel and changing tires is a huge pain in the ace!
I deflated my tires, got a spray bottle with some soapy water, and went to town spraying it in the inner sidewall of the rim and along the bead. Inflated it and BAM! THESE TIRES ARE FINALLY SEATED ON THE BEAD!!! Of course it's going to rain for the next few days so I can't confirm the wobble is gone, but I can clearly see an even spacing now, and the ridge of the bead is where it belongs.
Bro, you are a lifesaver!
You just saved me a ton of headache, stupid simple solution to my fat tire wobble! Works like a charm
Did exactly this with soap and water. (Dawn) after watching this video. The tire would not pop even after overinflating... So then I used WD-40 and poppow! Worked like a charm.
Thanks mate, helped me out big time.
That’s what I was going to mention, wd stays lubed longer
Wd40 to the rescue - thanks for the tip, lifesaver haha!!
Whatever it takes
Thanks man this helped so much! I could not for the life of me figure out why my tires were doing that
Awesome! It works for some of us but if not then most likely the rim needs to be looked at or possibly some new rubber. We are one of the lucky ones!
Thanks for the fix. I had the same issue - Strangely with Schwalbe tires as well. It had really gotten me down as I tried everything to fix it and still no luck. I also trashed my rim with metal tire levers (snapped all my plastic ones in the process) trying to get the tire on the rim in the first place. The wobble was just the kick in the n*ts that I didn't need.
Thanks Dude! This saved me from another trip to the bike shop - one last frustrating detail with my first DIY bike build.
Great to hear! Love when this works!
I didn't have as much success with soapy water so I used cooking oil instead. That worked like a charm!
Thank you! Just adding to the long line of people who solved the issue like this. No more bumpy ride on a smooth road.
Note - for me it only worked after I really soaked the tire with a soft brush. Using little water with a rag didn't work, nor did WD40 like some people recommended. Also there was no popping sound in my case.
It's a little weird that a bike technician told me my wobble was totally normal (apparently sometimes tires just come out like that from factory) and there's nothing I can do about it.
Fortunately he wasn't convincing me to buy a new tire, although I was seriously considering it. I rode with a bumpy wheel for about a year because it never occurred to me to lube the darn thing and pump it way above the recommended pressure, I was only pumping just a tad above it.
Now I feel stupid for both myself and that "technician" but I'm super glad I solved this.
Nice tip! Will try this out in a minute. I saw with much pleasure that you use tyre levers to get the tyre back on the rim. I saw a (dutch) video in which the guy said: Whatever you do, DON't use tyre levers to put the tyre back on. But I, already for over 30 years, use my (plastic) tyre levers as there is now other way to get them on! I'll let you know if your trick worked for me, though I first want to try this without taking the tyre off. I'll deflate them and wet the tyre like that ;-).
EDIT:15 minutes later: Reseated 2 tyres perfectly! Didn't take them off the rim, but deinflated them, sprayed (someone below came up with that great idea) both sides and after that inflated to 50psi. The second tyre almost give me a heart attack, as it 'popped' very loudly, I thought I blew my tyre 🙂. Perfect advise, thank you very much!
thank the lord for your video just got my Wobble tire fixed because of you thank you
Heck yeah I love hearing when it works out! Glad it worked!
A thousand thanks! This was exactly what I needed, worked perfectly. So easy when you know.
And previously I’d spent an unhappy hour or two struggling, got to the point where I was about to buy a new tyre.
Soapy water - I love it. In the last 20-some years, I spent lots of precious time "massaging" wobbly tires into place. Your cure works instantly! Thank you so much.
Awesome! Happy it worked!
Dude, you’re a life saver. Was about to trash the damn tires. Thank you.
Awesome! Yeah i hear ya lol was in the same boat!
Thanks Dude. I actually didn't use any soap. I tried first by manually manipulating the part of the tire that was not seating well and pumped it up to the max psi. It slipped right in. It was a gravel tire.
Thanks for the tip! Saved myself from a mechanic handing me a $49.95 receipt.
Excellent! lOVE SAVING $$$$
Thanks so much dude, we almost took my bike to a service shop and it would of cost a lot more than some soap!
Glad I could help! This one was a head scratcher for me until I figured this hack out!
Thanks for this video ! Just changed a rear tube and couldn't figure out why my tire was wobbly. Made my day brother !!
Nice! love love love when this little hack works for us MOUNTAIN BIKERS!
Love this I've recently installed some mitchelin dh22 and I've got tyre wobble no matter what I did nothing would stop it will be trying this method
Thanks you have a new subscriber
Love the success stories! Glad the soapy water trick straightened them out!
Ya had this problem too. I just deflated tires a bit and put some chain oil on finger and ran it on the rim both sides and that worked.
Great idea. Ill give this shit next time and make a video!
The method in the video did not work for me, but lubing up both sides of the rim did. Thanks a lot for the tip man!
Ok. You are right to do it about the beads. But maxxis simply wobbly even the beads are already out.
This is what I had an issue with. Forgot about this going to MTB from dirtbike. Definitely a good reminder.
Nice one!!! I had the same problem with 20x4.0 fatbike tyre - this soapy water trick helped a lot - thanks👍. I just deflated and used medium size paintbrush to give a good dose of soapy water on the tyre and rim. Also even though I over inflated I did not get the "pop" so ended up half inflation and massaging the tyre inward and away with from the rim with my palms to get it to pop in place. I did this all the way around on both sides to get the mounting line as even as possible.
Really appreciate this tip..works really well..thanks much
Worked for me on the 2nd try just added more soapy water to the uneven area 😊 thank you
This worked great, and was super easy! thanks for making an easy to follow and brief video on this!!
Thanks for sharing this. First tyre took a few tries, second first try straight. Also used it for getting the tires off and on easier. Gonna remember this!
Glad it worked!
A very nice and informative video! Instead of soap and water I use cooking oil. That is the only thing that I do differently.
It’s the little things in life.
Well done on the video
Thank you!
2:25 Once the frame settled (watching the axle points in the background) there was still a large deflection... did you have a bent rim as well (spokes etc)?
BTW Viewers... If you have a wobbly tyre it can be the rim tape if it has shifted when fitting the tyre. If the tape gets under one sidewall it can cause a deflection.
You can also have a sidewall failure. (See this failure at 40 secs on mark.. ua-cam.com/video/PUq8SVRxrVI/v-deo.html)
Excelente vídeo. I think this is a very common issue and you address it in a great way
Thanks. I didn’t know what I was gonna do 😅
Can confirm this worked for me. I didn't even take the wheel off the bike. Just turned that baby upside down, deflated and ran some soap around the rim. Inflated and done. Fyi this wobble is more common on folding tires than ones with a wire bead in my experience.
Saved me from hours of frustration!
Thanks 👍
Glad it helped! Wish i figured it out sooner haha!
I discovered this method about 6 years ago when I started using tubeless tires on my mtb's. I'm commenting because I just now had to repeat the method. I pumped the new tire up to 70lbs and will leave it there for a couple hours.
Tried this method and got my tire perfectly seated on both sides without even trying. It's still wobbly as hell though. :-( I might have defective/poorly made tires. Continental RaceKing 29 x 2.0. Rear rim is true.
This dude is a beast! Quality video.
Nice equipment love this bike....
Now I know what I gotta do. Thanks Bro!
Army Strong!
Nice information, i thought my wheel was bent haha. But i noticed i was a tire. Thanks for the help
Me too😂
Glad it helped!
people, just to spare Your energy and time - there are tires which wobble although You have ideal rim and set them ideally as well. If You face such problem just ask for new ones (if still under warranty).
Worked first time! Thanks for the video.
I too have the same issue... going to fix this.. Thanks a lot...
My tire hopped the rim and my tube popped right at 50psi! Cool!
This tutorial saved me! Learned something new today. Thanks a lot!
Needed this video. Got some new tires today and both tires have this same problem.
Awesome video! Seems to have fixed my problem with almost no effort.
Perfect!
Thanks going to try this. I have some slime filled tubes with new tires and though that was the culprit.
thanks for sharing i have continental tubeless cross king tires. and hope i can fix the wobble.
Did it work?
@@NorthCountryMTB did not I think I have both defective continental cross king tires
My mans running tubes.. ballsy 😀
Just on the DH rig haha!
Awesome tip! I was struggling with the same thing!
Wow, what a cool trick. This is something all cyclists ought to know . Thanks.
Ye but Not necessary. Just Pump IT to 6 bar and it Pops in
Great video! Thank you for your help! worked like a charm!
Glad it helped!
Maxxis tyres are murder for this!, never had this problem with schwalbe
So much frustration, such an easy fix :')
Had same issue. Resolved. Thanks.
I tried this method only on one side cause my issue was on one side only when that side seated I saw the problem went to the other side so lesson learned add the soapy water on both sides even if the problem is on one side..good video tho .
Great tip! Yeah id do both sides while you are it rather having to loop back. Glad it worked!
Get a spray and mix water and soap and apply on the wheel. A sprayer ! Pist pist pist and it will spread everywhere
Good video man! Saved me some trips and frustration!
Thanks! Yeah I wish I knew about this quick fix earlier...I was going crazy haha
I’ve got a Maxxis, the rim line is equal on both sides and it popped on both sides, but it’s still got a wobble 🤬
Shite tyres😂Bought a Maxxis Ardent £55 and yep, it is a defective tyre😅Just cant get rid of the wobble😢Oh wait, i can! Just took it off & threw it in the bin. Not worth the headache whatsoever!
Me too with Maxxis tyres
Did the trick. Thank you!
man ive been losing it over this wobble and the whole time it was literaly just my tire not set to the bead correctly. wow im so dumb lolol
Problem solved 😮 i considered using cod liver oil for good measure, that would have been a laugh 😂
Thank you for this video it was really helpful
Awesome slippers too
make sure to check max tire pressure of the rim manufacturer not to blow it off or damage it. even hooked rims have sometimes very low inflation limits. like the dt swiss xrc 1200 has a max limit of 2,5 bar or so.
I tried it out myself with a spray bottle filled with water and automobile soap. It popped the bead on my road tire with about 120psi
Tried the soapy water , just used a small sponge to soak around the tyre ,and as I am a cowboy , I didn't even take the wheel off the bike , it worked though.
I tried everything even with 2 sets of different tyre's on my HALO T2 rims couldn't for life of me get them to run true until i pumped them up to 80psi then pop they seated properly then i just deflated them to the correct pressure
Great video!
Finally, thanks my dude!
Keep up the great content my guy! Also do you ever ski? If so maybe you could do skiing videos... just a thought.
Winter Fat Biking, Snowboarding, and just picked up skiing! Skiing is super fun and easy to grasp....big fan!
Exactly the info i needed thank you
gotta try it on my road bike, I took a hit and I thought my wheel was bent but the tyre is the issue, just won't sit properly
Yeah give it a go before buying a new tire or wheel! Hopefully it works!
@@NorthCountryMTB didn't seem to work but I think the tyre got damaged heavily and there is no fixes for that
tnx anyways
You replaced the tire and tube but it was still warped? If you did al lthat you'd be starting the seating process from scratch each time which should fix it in the first place...
Nothing was warped. The tire(s) were not seeding properly until the soap and water method. Whether it be the wheel or Schwalbe tire that made the seeding so difficult is the question.
@@NorthCountryMTB exactly. Very strange that you basically started from scratch multiple times with 2 different tires and it still wouldn't seat properly.
Works an absolute treat. Thank you!
Glad it helped!
Great content!! Great video!! Surprised your not tubeless
8th attempt, still not right😅Nothing major like but not 100% £55 for that tyre, thanks maxxis.
it helped, but still i have some wiggle problems with both tires. I,m sure its because i have glued it
Worked a treat!
I have this problem with WTB tires. Received a warranty replacement and same issue. I also did this soapy water hack and no avail. My tire is seated properly with even line markings throughout the rim on both sides.
My tyre has this problem but it bounces vertical. I'll try the soapy water trick first.
Thanks for the help!
Thanks Buddy at 50 LBS. it went pop and Wobble gone.
Love when it works as expected!
Great tip. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanx man ! I will try this tommorow on my new e mtb
did it work?
Good luck!
@@NorthCountryMTB didn't work lol and I blew my inner tube from over inflating lmao
back to the bike shop
I'm still frustrated.
My rims are true within 0.006" lateral per dial indicator. I've always used dish soap to lube bead. Tire rings are concentric to rims all the way around, both sides, on all 4 tires of our his n her's MTBs. But all 4 of our Conti Rubans have a lateral wobble one place each tire.
What is the industry expected tolerance for how consistent tread centerline is to the beads?
I've never seen tire wobble this pronounced on tires that are concentric to the rim.
Can I do anything with a defect tire? My rim is trued and I can see the bead line consistent all around. Swapped front to back, same issue. For now, my best option is to mount it in the rear and avoid messing up with the steering.
See if you can contact the manufacturer
Thank you
Thanks man.. I thought my tires was un even or defective.. I will try this one tomorow
Same here! Yeah let me know if it works out for you!
Thanks
Awesome man!!!
Thanks!!
Thanks for sharing, but how do you fix the wobble that left ? Video shows it’s still wobbling a bit.
Thank you Brother🥰🥰
Happens every time I replace tubes. Gonna have to try and see if it works.
You need ti runing with lower psi and pump again , it works for me
This is funny, I have the same tyres and it’s doing the exact same in the same spot hahahah
When I change tires usually get the beads pretty much where they need to before inflating, normally pop and they are on. Any tricky tires I have used talc before, same idea as soapy water.
