Has anyone ever actually seen a failure? I know what we have been told, but who told them? I done lots of things that people said weren't possible, just because they hadn't done it...

I mean, we are talking about a 1/4" here...

By no means am I am advocate of putting the 22 o the 22.5, I just want to get sme more facts/info on it, good or bad.

I thought the radius and style of the bead changed at every tire size to avoid people doing that.

Lock has.

It has something to do with the bead tearing internally while your trying to stretch it.

And I think mathematically, it's actually more than a 1/2" of stretch. Something about diameter times the circumference, or something like that.

Where the heck is Lock?
