Just had 2 tires aired up at the tire shop. He slobbered a whole ton of lube on, then used his machine to manipulate the air leaks gone so air pressure could take over. Problem is, two days later when I went to mount on the loader, the soft soil gave way and the loader slid a little. Next thing I know I'm looking at the pic below. The whole rim is so slippery I can barely grab hold of it. Don't really want to take it to the same place, but the guy charged $20 per tire to fix them -- but they're not fixed. He never checked for leaks.
This place used to be THE place to go to for tire repair around here. Now? I doubt I'd want to take them trash tires. So was just wanting to learn a little more about skid loader tires and how they mount. When the loader slid, there was no whoosh of air, no pop (or un-pop? *lol), nothing. It was like there was no air in the tire. Which since he never checked for leaks, might just be. Anyway I had to work harder to lift the loader up from ground level. That meant digging down for the hydraulic jacks, which did nothing to help stabilize the soil!
