Mike Melton shows how Fury off-road tires lose air when beads don't seat right, especially when actual width (13.5 inches) doesn't match the nominal spec. The new Country Hunter MT2 (35×16.5×26) seats better. He walks through dismounting with a reverse-pull technique and oil trick to free stuck beads.
A lot of guys come in here with Fury tires leaking down on their wheels and they don't understand why. So I'm going to show you exactly what's going on with these Fury tires and why they leak down and why you should do something different. So a lot of guys come in here and say that thing is stretched, but not really. So these are 16 wides and these are 15.5 wide tires, but if you look at it, that thing looks like it's about 13.5 inch wide. So like when they're mounted up like this, a lot of guys say they wind up leaking down on them, which they do because they're not always seated properly. So we brought in some different ones. Let me show you these. This is the new Fury Country Hunter MT2. Now you see it's a 35x16.5x26. All right, right now we dismount this thing. All right, now we're gonna go ahead and dismount that bottom bead. Let's go. I know sometimes it'll start to get stuck right here. What you want to do, go ahead, take it and reverse it. It just makes that tire a little bit easier to come off, just like this. That's it. Come on, bring the oil out. That's it.
