Petrolheads & car fans don’t stop being petrolheads & carfans just because it’s Christmas.
Pointless.. They already had perfectly good threads to them.. Why don’t they ever show a good worn tire that was burned hard and had like 1mm of thread left?
Must be very tyring.
Those guys were on a roll.
What age is that retreading tehnology from. We have machines from 70s and the process is more modern and efficient than that. Im thinking of making a video to show you how we do it in Croatia, these guys are slow and clumsy. If I processed tyres so slowly I woud get in trouble for slowing down production.
