Putting fluid in tires
 

What's the best method for putting windshield wiper fluid in rear tires?

If you can wait a couple of days until I get home, I'll post a picture of my setup...

The best method? :bigthink:
Well, I just got a set filled at a local tire shop for $10 per tire.
That's the best method that I've found! :biggrin2.gif:

CBH,.... LOL, yeah that's a pretty good method alright. The nearest place I can get it done (at a tire shop) is over 30 miles away.

Question,... did they pump the fluid into your tires??

I don't have a way of doing that, but I do have a tire machine and I've thought about "breaking" the bead on one side of a mounted tire and just pouring the fluid in, then airing the tire back up and re-seating the bead. :bigthink:

Trust me, you want tubes in your tires if you are going to put fluid in them. I speak from experience...

:bigeyes: UH OH!!!!,... I don't have tubes in my tires.

Do the tires leak fluid without tubes??

Not normally...but I knocked a tire off the rim plowing snow with my 128 at a friend's house...6 gallons of washer fluid is a mess. At least it melted all the snow out of their driveway. :biggrin2.gif: I had to walk home and drag another tire and tools with me, pull the weights off, change the tire, and put the weights back on. It was annoying. I will never put fluid in tubeless tires again. Somewhere, I have a picture of this incident, but I can't find it...

They used an air operated pump to put the windshield washer fluid in the tires. It just hooked right to the valve.
I guess that I'm lucky. I have 3 sets of loaded tubeless tires, I've not had any troubles...........so far.

CBH,... did the $10 per tire include the cost of the fluid?

.... if so, that sounds like a REAL good deal.

Yes.....labor and fluid, $10 per tire.
