How fast can you actually change a tyre? Forget the way how they do it at Formula 1 and forget how they do it at some of the tyre shops who use the pressure gun (and probably screws up your nuts thanks to over torquing). Check out the video below on how a team of 4-men change 4 tyres on a car using manual tools with the help of two hydraulic car jacks.
Yes, all in under 1 minute to change 4 tyres with manual tools. Talk about speed and precision. And all this without any electric tools.
Four mechanics from German automotive parts and repairs company kfzteile24 set about breaking this Guinness World Records title last January and have been training since then. More than just breaking the record, which had previously stood at 1 minute and 23.85 seconds by a fellow German team, they wanted to smash it. And so they did. – Guinness World Record
In times like this where run flat tyres are getting more and more prevalent, I guess the art and skill of changing tyres have certainly been lost.
