I have never done it that bad but at least 4 times I have got mud in between the rim and the tyre so it gives the tyre a slow puncture  :twisted:

when this happens I just put my hi lift on the flat tyre wall and jack the disco up so it pushes the wall away from rim a bit more, get the hose out on jet setting and blast the mud out. Pump up, soapy water on the beeding and see if it needs doing again.

Saves me so much money instead of tyre places taking whole rim off and rebalance  :twisted: :D

gtomo2:
yea had to clean the wheel then used bin bags to wrap around the wheel to seal it so we could re inflate it. as no one had any lighter fuel handy to do the iclandic trick

richo:
Ive never pops or punctured a tyre on any vehicle I've owned but my ex-wife used to.
Once a mouth and usually four tyres at a time ouch!

this happens to mine too , very regularly - I get my beadbreaker and tyre levers and whack the tyre off the bead , clean it then pump it up again
