    I saw this attempted in person once, actually mounted the tire, it just deflated again a few miles after we put it back on.

    On a second look I wonder if the explosion was intentional, considering the fuse.

      This is for mounting the tyre only; this method burns whatever’s inside the tyre so it actually creates negative tyre pressure, therefore, you gotta inflate it afterwards
