Fr lol

Right, Just cus your fast does not mean you are good, The rim could had be cracked they would never know

They have a 15 min promise time. They probs will have you balancing the first few days. Cause if you mess up a rim it’s GG

I just got the job as well... We ain't gna last long. Lmbo

@@bfat387you still working there? Jesus loves you bro

Have they broken you yet?

@@morganhurst4423 wym mah man? If you mean discount tire, all the manual labor is intense but you get used to it. I’ve been out as crew chief the last few days and in my opinion it’s a lot more enjoyable than tire technician

It should only take 1 minute and a half to change a tire and follow all best practice guid lines while doing it. These guys were reckless the first dude threw his dead tire and knocked someones wheel on the face but honestly this doesn't obstruct quality. The only thing you cant do fast is torque. I can do a rotation in 8-12 minutes alone and do 2 new in 8-12 minutes that's all it should take. Imagine working on 300 cars and if you move slowly you'll end up working g a 17 hour shift. Go home at 2am wake up at 6 to get there by 7. You dont even realize how necessary it is to do this fast. Especially during winter rush in our northern regions.

Yes we are trained to do it correctly with a sense of urgency. So we know what we are doing very well we do it all day long

@@ashtonduns4589 brother are you related to sean duns?

@@laffordie119 yeah that’s my father. Do we know you?

@@ashtonduns4589 heck yea that guy hired me lol😂

Yeah mate at milperra tyres in Sydney they can. You guys should check them out its insane

It's not hard to do and it's not that hard of work if you have never done tires b4 ever it would take minimum 4 to get past of the soreness than after that it just becomes routine

They did not have any break, full gas.

It’s honestly easier than fast food.

oh but some of us can😂

I got fired for that LOL

I get pissed on when I don't do that. HAHA

LMAO WHAT THE HELL I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST OUR STORE "THE KEY TO WHEEL TORQUE IS BUFFED HUBS"

Na every discount tire has to buff hubs bro policy

Didn’t put old valve in bag either/:

Smacking the tire with the bar actually aids in removal of the old tire. I tried it and it really does work

yea it helps with removing the tire and it can also be pretty satisfying

$400 merc rims thats cheap af lol

@@daven7167 I concur. And I wouldn’t try being too cocky with those duallies. Those things are a pain in the neck to deal with.

jpjoe100 tips and tricks. Some tires have a dot on the DOT side. Others you can tell by the type of tire. I’m still learning but it can be done. These guys make it look easy. Must be early in the shift because by 11 hours in, my ass is dragging lol

Brian Dalton Etc? Our store is only open 10 on any day bit Saturday when we are open 9

When your crew chief stages the tires and fils out the cims card he should stack them dot up. Helpful hint

In all honesty, time and memory. In most places, you know what direction the tire should face. A vast majority of them are symmetrical so it doesn't really matter. The tip I usually give my newer techs "When in doubt, DOT out." A quick glance at the tread to make sure it's not directional first, then just stick the DOT side out. Putting the DOT every time, even on symmetrical tires is a good practice anyway for potential warranty services is an upside, as you don't need to lift the vehicle (or crawl under) to make sure the tire IS one that was installed by your company (not that it matters given how tires are mass produced these days).

Dude, tire tech work isn't difficult by any means (pretty much anyone without a major disability or weight restriction can do it), but damn if it doesn't break you down. I just want my "shop" to get rid of these stupid flat lifts (parallel lifts, belly lifts, etc) and get us some damn two-post lifts. We can only get the wheels 3 feet off the ground at maximum (factoring any sag in the suspension), which means your crouched or kneeling A LOT.

imagine legacy workflow w that guy on the left🤌🏽

It's not much different. The machines they're using are easier IMO. The ones we've have you pull the spoon towards you rather than from right to left. It can get sketchy if you don't make sure you have a firm grip because if that spoon slips out and you have a loose grip, it can fly at your face or away from you (one of our machines is literally in front of a window). The problem with it being the way mine are set up, you're more than likely going to "wiggle" the spoon since your arm is extended in front of you across the wheel rather than off to your side.

Mark Lara yup as soon as you hear a crunch “ shit” 😂😂

Thats why we have to hand back TPMS rebuilds now.

@@kayleeelenbaas136 that moment when you popping the bead and trying to be fast and break the sensor. Fuck

derekjlight yes because we are always busy and are pushing out cars so the customer doesn't wait, just because it's fast doesn't mean it's not good quality

Break the bead at 12 and 6 and your good to go.

@@Theempiresf49 haha ya, unless the back bead is corroded on then you get to walk your happy ass around and around till it decided to drop center

Tpms is the worst way to play this game. That's why it's the perfect time to set this game up is with a 90s-00s car and no tpms. And all good lugs. Hondas, toyotas.

@@CaptainFALKEN yeah those expanded lug nuts actually fuck my day up sometimes. When I have to pound a socket on to each and every lug and fight it all the way back off. Real fun shit. 🖕manufacturers

@@CaptainFALKEN exactly

skliros wheels***

there's no way they couldve got damaged, the duckhead is a rubber/plastic and nothing but the bar and duckhead touches the wheel.

@@wyattolsen584 Nope, duckhead is metal.

@loOOooO If done correctly, they pry on the duckhead to make certain the tire is over the duckhead the first time.

Unless requested by customer or changing tire on custom rim, the rim is clamped from the inside on the machine with teeth. On custom rims or special request by customer, the rim is clamped from the outside. From what I've seen, putting balance weights on scratches a rim more than changing the tire. The balance weights can be very stubborn to go on.

Not Vladimir Putin I work at discount tire for 2 months but goodluck !

@@skeddani trust me, you guys will love it. Company picnics are the best. Hope yall are doing great from azp26

did you get it? i have one today

@@nickmuscolino8724 did u get it? i’m 6 weeks in

We didn't and we played the game anyway. The fun is to make up for the stress from the Ford lugs, stuck-on-hub wheels, and waiting on the customer to come back from walmart to talk about the nail in the sidewall which could make a car sit in the bay for 2 hours.

Cars coming in like that 00 mustang with beat up stock wheels, or beater hondas with steelies and just rubber stems allow employees to set up for this game evenly.

Try a VTV pad

Free time hahahahaha. If you’ve got time to lean you’ve got time to clean

Sooo were u ever that fast

@@blur6939 lmao

calling bullshit on this.

Indy Morgan Nah, I made my trainee do it. He rose to the challenge and is progressing well

My fasted time was a minute and four seconds in the training center

Sebahung how are you liking it?

With 2 or more techs, yes. One tech, no. One tech doing every single step correctly averages about 30-45 minutes. Plus this is literally dismounting and mounting a tire. Doesn't include removing the wheel, deflating, and balancing. You must be a real fun guy to work for.

You’re not fuckinggg lying mam shit sucks

Well tech B is not doing his or her job if those beads are not broken before hand. Tech B should also be dropping those sensors

Chukwillard obviously you haven’t worked in an understaffed shop where you are working solo on a car xD

Johnathan Mathis thats why we move slower on nicer and more expensive rims

The bars dont have rigid edges for a reason. So that doesn't scratch your honda civic wheel my man :) ricer

Did you get the job?

@@mason3vze740 hell no lmao

You only do that if there is Corrosion and it is leaking from the bead.

PimberProductions Pimber you know tired can’t get scratched right? Wheels get scratched. If you look in the back there are no cars. It’s a slow day they probably got dead’s and put em on wheels just to see who’s the fastest.

in this job ya gotta be fast otherwise you get out 3 or more hours past closing time

AustinHobs I never thought of doing it that way! I never seen anybody at my store do that either. Looks like I found a new trick to teach people lol

bro I know exactly what youre talking about, it really is

I'll have to try it tomorrow

Bruh. Im trying that tomorrow.

Like with the flex knife??
