I’ve recently learnt about lifetraps and it’s made a huge positive impact on how I view myself and my relationships

    I have filled a lot of tires and I cannot think of a single time where I had appropriate equipment to inflate the tire from any position that wasn’t right in front of it.

      The aircraft mechanic school I attended had a little cage to put tires in while inflating them. This is the only such thing I have ever seen including during aviation service in the field.

      In all my life I’ve only heard it now. My own little portable compressor, as I am 4wd travelling. Agree, before that I’ve never had that option, nor seen, or heard of a tyre exploding. Not to say it doesn’t happen.

        It happens far more with heavy vehicles than it does with cars. A truck tyre will be inflated to somewhere around 90psi, vs the 30ish a car tyre is. Fleet service technicians for heavy vehicles will place wheels inside a metal cage before inflating in order to contain any explosions which may occur.
