Unhappy new tires soon

89 Toyota, have Goodyear AT 30 9.5 15 on right now. Just got a set of Super Swampers TSL 31 9.5 15. Went to one place today to get them mounted and no luck. They couldn't get them blown up, man so said.

I can't wait to get them on! I've got some trails to hit here at Ft Benning.

Might need an engine soon?

not that dangerous if your not an idiot and spray half the can in the tire like alot of other morons on you tube. lol.

FYI that was the first time I've done it that way. And if your on a trial and pop a bead, well there will be no tire shops around and this actually might be safer than a spare replacement depending on how and where your rig is sitting.

On board air and a quick air and core tool and super easy to seat a bead about 10 dollars worth of tools and alot safer IMO

Yea I'm going to somewhere to get these Super Swampers mounted today. It was hard finding places open on Sunday.

My little Yota is stock. I did put a K&N air filter. She has 209k on motor. She is burning and leaking oil. I just keep adding oil and driving on.

Just ran some seafoam, man she is running way better. Pouring it in the vacum line was the ticket. Cause I don't know jack about engines.

Can't decide on if I should have it rebuilt or dropping in a new one? Any ideas???

Thanks
Aaron
