Re: 33's = increased risk of rolling off bead when aired down & at 30-35 degree + ang

Ive ran 15 to 20 all the time on 33 baja claw radials and never had a problem, I've taken a corner too fast a couple times and had the truck on 2 wheels. Scary as hell but never slipped a bead. I'm also running stock steelies. Mabey I've just been extremely lucky. As for re seating it, the safest way is to always carry a ratcheting cargo strap, The 3 inch wide 10000 pound rated one, not the little skinny ones(unless thats all ya got, thenuse 2 or 3). You simply wrap it around the outside tread and crank it tight, this will push the sidewalls back to the rim. Make sure the sidewall and rim are clean of dirt and rocks or any other debris. then simply air up. A CO2 bottle is Ideal as it can give a short powerful burst when regulated correctly but if done correctly a compressor can work also.
