- Super easy way to install Solid Tire ( Honey Comb Tire ) for Gotrax GXL, Xiaomi M365 and many other electric scooters.

This is the best real life example of "work smarter, not harder" that I have ever seen, lol
How is this video 10x better than the actual company’s CZcams video good shit
Out of all the CZcams methods for installing solid tires, this is the ONLY method that worked for me. Thanks Jed for sharing this with us.
10 minutes and back tire on no problem. This method is more efficient than the zip ties, which kept breaking. Now on to the front tire. Thanks so much for the video. 😊
Good point. The zip tie method is important for tires that are solid, you just need the extra thick zip ties. Glad the other method helped though. Thank you.
Thanks so much for this different way to install the honeycomb tire. There was absolutely no way I would’ve gotten it on otherwise because the “recommended” way wasn’t working. I had the tire on in 5 minutes following your advice.
Makes me happy. Thanks for letting me know.
I can honestly say I would not have completed this task without this video. I almost gave up, and then came back to CZcams to look for other ideas and found this one. Wish I would have found this video first. Thank you.
Nice idea. I just put a solid tire on my Gotrax GLV 2 and it was the hardest thing I have ever done. I used the zip tie method and finally able to get it on.
Three sessions of trying the traditional method with the help of 2 other people, and we could not get it done.
I was about to pay mechanic $50, but this tutorial absolutely saved me.
You made it SO easy!
Thank you so much, dude!
Now how difficult will it be to take it off? 🤣
So I want to thank you so much. I battled with it for 30 min then found your video. 10 min both tires done!!!! I added a hole in the plywood for the axle to keep the rim flat and it went right on!!!
Thanks for this. I used Hexagonal head screws with a washer, a crow bar, some zip ties and it was soooo much easier. You're a bloody legend!!! Thank you 🙏
Awesome. Thank you.
This was awesome! I couldn't get that's tires on any other way! Bravo!
JED, thank you very much,,I followed your idea.
Cut hole in plywood and dropped disc brake side down and used the 3 long screws to hold her down.
Used my pry bar and she went right on and I set it in rim with screwdriver thru the holes.
Thanks very much
YOUR idea is awesome..
THANKS AGAIN, Frank
Awesome awesome video. I tried for more time than I care to admit trying the hot water and microwave method. I watched your video and was able to get this installed in under ten minutes. Thank you!!
Nice video, I tried your way but couldn't get it to work. I boiled the water for 20 minutes then used your method and it worked for no issues! Thanks...
This video needs ALL the views when it comes to this particular task. Super helpful. Why are there dislikes?
did you get the memo, disklikes aren't real anymore
I was totally stuck trying to install these on my scooter- thank you, this totally did the trick!
I’m not gonna lie, I would have never gotten my rear tire on if I never found your video. Considering the fact the rear tire has no holes in the middle of it for zip ties. I almost cried trying to put it on with bare strength. Thank you! This video is a life saver!
I’m happy it worked.
after literally hours, tears and an immense feeling of defeat, this worked like a charm, thank You!
I’m very happy to have helped. Thank you for letting me know.
Thank you...struggled with scorching hot tyres...no luck...used your method...instant success!
Awesome. Thx
Worked perfect, thanks! I had to make a raised jig for the gotrax apex rear tire so it would sit level, but it was simple and the tire was on in 5 minutes with your method.
Glad it worked. Thank you.
Great idea - thanks for sharing this. You're correct, it's almost impossible to do it by hand on your own, but this way is definitely doable!
I'll be doing this idea real soon!
The longer the screws the better. Over 4” if you can find them.
Just did this and worked perfectly 👍🏻
Thanks man, as all the other comments, only way doable by one person. Its a very difficult task and your method with the screws is like adding 3 (super strong) hands. I did it on the rear wheel of a ninebot max. Used hex head lag screws 5/16" x 4 and 4.5 in length on 3/4" plywood over a couple of 2×4 as I wanted the screws catching over them when passing thru the plywood. Thanks again, you are a genious!
Thank you. Glad it helped you.
Very good sir. I got the old one off pretty easy but the new one was winning. Will be buying some screws tomorrow and beat the tire then. 😊.
Update.. worked like a charm
Thank u
Only way that worked for me. Thanks.
That is a different way to do that Great job btw! we boiled our and used 4 big zip ties and dawn dish soap. I conveniently had a knot that rotted thru my deck and fit my axel perfect so we just put a lil body weight on and tightened the zip ties until done took about 5 mins total not including boiling time! :D
I love it, thanks your Awesome !😉
Best Video I’ve seen! Ingenuity!!
Thank you.
Bro! Thank you so much. You just saved me a ton of time and frustration
Im watching this video a second time. Its a absolute must to use the large washers. I tried using the smaller ones and destroyed some of the tire due to the hot screw and spinning drill bit. Also try to be mindful of where you place the screws because too close and the threads damage the rim.
Thank you very much for the video. Your method is the only one that works for me
First, you gotta love the sport and that it comes with it or pay the price. Liked this tutorial!!!
Thank you so much. Was so apprehensive to do this, after changing the regular tire twice and taking over 3 hrs each time.
This method ended up taking me 15 minutes, so happy.
This method Works for my gotrax G4 +
This totally worked 👍👍👍👍
100% THE WAY. thank you so much
Great thanks, this's the only video that helped, but I can't find the big washers by using door hinges (x3) instead.
Good idea.
Your a mad scientist dude
Thank
THIS WORKED !!!!! Dude! You are my fucking hero! I am extremely mechanically inclined and I tried all the other methods (4 hours wasted) and they sucked! This worked plus I did boil the tire to soften it. I was working with the rear drive wheel on my Hover one dynamo scooter and did not want to Take the whole thing apart to disconnect the wiring so I had to angle the wheel out and keep it close to the scooter. I slipped a nice piece of plywood with the proper holes and groove under it and used your method. Fucking awesome!
Great video, you make a tough task easy. Just need to know what the cat does in this process.
Brilliant!
Doesn’t the screw damage the rim and the tire as you are screwing it in? Also, what size screws and tires to use?
This is genius!
Thanks random stranger!
How instal solid tyre 10 "without holes? Can I drill a hole?
I did something like that
Similar what you did. I do not use hot water ether
does anyone know what fits on g max 10"?
Cool video.. makes sense.AAA++++
I have a 8 inch wheel on my electric scooter. I wanna replace it with a honeycomb wheel. What would be the proper size for my jetson beam scooter? Because I’m only finding 8.5 inch honeycomb wheel . With it fit my wheel ?
No I found my wheel on Amazon if that helps
Genius
You made that look hard work. How would u do the front wheel?
I drilled a hole in the wood below for the tire to sit in. If I was to do it again I would have used longer screws to force it down. The screws I used were 4 inch screws and needed about another half inch to reach the wood below.
wow dude i like the way you think!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A++++++++
Thanks brother.
Great idea. Sadly, the tire set I ordered doesn't have holes in it like this though. 😞
See my other tire video. I use another method that works for solid tires with no holes as well.
@@JedsGarage Ah yeah. Good shout. Thx.
Best example. 5 minutes to fit. Little bit fairy and job done
Freeze the rims and boil the tyres and you can push them on with your hands with a tad of grease, just saying
Any helpful tips are welcome. Thanks.
I did it my hands were shaking cuz I was so happy I do have one pointer though I used 5 three inch screws and two crowbars and this method should be pretty easy because I got it done and I am 13 lol
Nice job!
Impossible on my scooter. Can not be done.
Can you order solid tires with holes in them?
Hi!
I have a (Xiaomi MI Elektroroller pro 2) scooter that has tires of the same size?
Can I also put these same tires on my scooter? Please answer my words Sir.
🙎🙎🙎👨🦽👨🦽👨🦽👨🔧👨🔧👨🔧🕵️🕵️🕵️🙎🙎🙎
fucking genius
Welp this sucks cuz the solid tire I got isn’t a honeycomb tire…
I’m gonna be making a solid tire video soon man. Sorry, I couldn’t help yet.
I done this recently but it keeps coming off when riding already what do you think the problem is I do know its the right size as I measured it before I purchased it
So they make tires that are like 8.4 or 8.3 I would measure it again and order a size smaller
@@deanwalters13whatever the size is stamped on the side of the old tire is what you should be ordering for the new tire
It is not easy as mentioned!
Sorry man. I do have another video where I used zip ties. You can try that if you want. Good luck.
