    Great tips, Milan!
    What I usually do is instead of removing center caps I write the position of the wheel on their back sides (front right, rear left etc.) and when the time comes to mount them back I just swap them and thus rotating the wheels. Obviously, it only works for square setups, but still

    1) Clean tires and wheel
    2) Dont use tire shine products
    3) Dont store tires on vehicle
    4) Over inflate to tire max if on vehicle, empty if not
    5) Keep away from sunlight and weather
    6) Store white walls facing together
    7) Keep tires away from electrical equipment to reduce exposure to ozone
    8) Inspect before reinstallation

      Well, yes but easier said than done, huh?
      Depending on where we live(temp.extremes for me😤) because i live in the rust belt, and my daily drivers, Focus and Edge have winter studded tires for the Focus front and rear, because front wheel drive is just not enough!🤬, and aggressive big(enough) grippy lugged tires for my all-wheel drive Edge.
      Both are highway rated D.O.T. approved but of course i have all season tires for spring, summer, and fall that came with the vehicles.
      So i store my tires off season in plastic bags in my non-temperature controlled garage, they're out of the weather, u.v.rays, etc., 03 trioxygen, but i'm not going heat my garage unless i have to work on something, or air condition it.
      I just wish there was some kind of preservative that i could apply to help a little, 'ya know?

    This is all great. Now I just need a heated garage that is big enough to store the tires, our cars, bikes, gardening stuff, tools, and all of the other stuff in the garage. Unfortunately, garages are rarely that large up here, near Canada. Unless you have a very large house.

    Don't lower the pressure in your tyres!
    Tyres aren't sentient, they don't need to relax. Changing the pressure in the tyres causes a lot more stress and fatigue than keeping them at a constant pressure, about 3 times as much!
    Leaving a car on jackstands is a good idea, but not like you did with the Mini. Again: constant stress is better than "relaxing", put the jackstands under a strong part of the suspension arms as close as possible to the wheels, keeping the suspension under tension as if the car would sit on its wheels.

    i have purchased one adv motorcycle. runs a tubed 60-40 road biased tyre compund. however now i have the urge to purchase one rear rim and buy an offroad rear tyre to take my bike in muddy trails. the problem is i use the same bike mostly on highways. so i have to do this occasional swap. maybe six times a year for three days or so at a stretch when i do trails. these offroad tyres are block pattern and soft compound. they wear out after six thousand kilometres if u use them on highways. i live in a humid climate where temperatures run 43 celcius in summers. and its very humid during pre and post monsoon.
    is there any thing other than what you have mentioned that i should keep in mind?

    Great video. My question is more about mags and wheels for winter storage. I have found that especially the REAR side of the mag that is unfinished like at the hub or other non finished areas tends to corrode and sometimes affect the front finish. I’m wondering what I can do to protect it especially in storage. I was thinking beeswax or something non-solvent based? I store my wheels in bags and stack them vertically but on some wheels and some mags I have seen corrosion damage. Thanks for your help. Subscribed.

    • @milanmastracci
      @milanmastracci  2 роки тому +1

      Hey Steve! My biggest advice to you is giving the wheels a thorough cleaning prior to storing them, in addition, ensure they are dry before you put them away in bags. The bags have the possibility to hold the moisture in there and will actually expedite the corrosion on the bare aluminum. I hope this makes sense 👍

If you run a +35 offset will the face stick out or in and also with a +42 and +45 will it stick in or out. With a 17x7.5 or 17x8 can you run a +35. Sorry for the long answer. Great video btw

      It depends what the offset of the stock BRZ wheels is. If the RPF1's are 17x8.5+35, and the stock wheels are a 17x7.5+35, they stick out an additional 12mm outwards, and 12mm inwards. This video should help :) ua-cam.com/video/0WCHHR8Lhes/v-deo.html

      So if you went with a 17x9+35, it would extend 38mm's past where the stock outside part of the wheel is, and inside the wheel well, the wheel would be 12mm's closer to the strut.

  • @joapps8135
    @joapps8135 5 років тому

    at least 2 pieces of misinfo here:
    1) over inflating can help reduce flat spotting to a certain degree but wont totally prevent it. it is possible but in rare cases some unknowingly over inflate too much and the tire explodes
    2) at 6:05, stacking tires on top of each other places the most weight on the bottom tire. simple physics. as u like to use examples, think of a dog pile...and adding those cushioned dividers WILL NOT distribute weight evenly no matter how thick they are

    I'd just say most of these tips just don't make any scientific sense at all. Like recommending to deflate the tires, which will definitely put more stress on them, than leaving them inflated - because expansion and contraction is a greater stress, than keeping a static state. Or recommending not to coat the tires, because it supposedly "reacts" with the rubber - when in fact a coating does the opposite: it hinders environment factors from reacting with the tire material. Etc.

    7:09 Not trying to put you down, but why do you speak so objectively about this? Are you a mechanical engineer? Well I'm a mechanical engineer, and just knowing about the material properties of tires: nitrile-butadiene, styrene-butadiene, stainless-steel, and polymer fiber matrix, I can tell you that the tires are fine if stored at operating air pressure. The mechanism failure you're trying to refer to is called "creep," which is a time-dependent failure mechanism in which a material will still fail (or permanently deform) even if exposed to a stress below it's yield strength.
    This is not the case for tires when in normal operation pressures and will not experience permanent deformation because the tires should be engineered to not fail by this mechanism.
    9:08 It is true that nitrile butadiene deteriorates when exposed to O3; however, you're over-generalizing motors, akin to fear-mongering. Not "any" mechanical motor; brushed motors generate O3 by sparking. Quality tires contain detergents that protect against UV and O3 which is why they turn brown over time. Sidewalls are the most vulnerable part of the tires so a quality tire dressing, or wax, can provide a protective-like barrier. Thus, 2:27 is misinformation.
    leaving them next to brushed-DC motor appliances for a season is unlikely to cause any damage out of the ordinary, especially if they have been properly maintained/ dressed, in a well ventilated space, and the fact that those motors aren't producing _that_ much ozone. The UV rays from the sun reacting with the oxygen in our atmosphere is the main cause of ozone and there's no escaping that.
    2:38 what does "solvent" based mean? I thought water is a solvent? (In fact, it's the universal solvent). Do you mean petroleum-based? nitrile butadiene is resistant to petroleum; however, styrene-butadiene appear to be weak. It really depends on the quality and condition of the tire.
    4:53 true, but _what_ temperatures? nitrile butadiene is generally safe from -30°C/-22°F to +100°C/212°F.

    but you must know that low life lasting tyres are made that way by design. 5 years is nothing. and its absurd not to use something when its new but 5 years old and never driven. you guys just advocate on behalf of the greedy bastards. so you are not protecting your interests but wallets of fat greedy bastards, you ought a think about that. it is perfectly safe to drive with old but new tyres as long they dont have cracks in them.

    your last info about 11years old tire that due to thick tread and good storing, killed your credibility!

      Rubber compound become less flexible with time due to UV/temp change/Ozone/Oxygane/Chemicals...
      Old tire may be slippery and cause traction problem in colder day, even in summer. Lifespan is estimated around 5years...
