Off-road adventures are an incredible experience. Those who have been on such adventures know exactly what we are talking about. On the other hand, we strongly encourage those who haven`t tried yet, or are still hesitating, to get out of the city jungle and have some fun. However, off-road entertainment requires a special type of attention, and of course, not everyone can do it.
That`s why we believe that the video you are about to watch could be of a great importance for off-road adventure lovers, as well as to the ones who were wondering why the tires are additionally grooved. Namely, you are going to watch Jake Burkey demonstrating how his tire groover works and also hear him explaining why is useful to regroove your used tires.
He begins with describing the tire groover used in the video! It is actually an oscillating cutter i.e. the modified scraper, which is made a bit narrower and also has been sharpened. After this, you will see him tire grooving and this is the point where you are persuaded that regrooving your used tires is not a difficult task to do. But if you don`t follow these instruction, it still might be a rather demanding task. Next, we come to the point when Jake answers the question why the tire grooving process is actually useful. In fact, he gives a rather straightforward example of crossing some water surface.
Jake says that if you have quality tires you won`t have any problems, whereas if your tires are worn-down you might lose control over your vehicle. In other words, the ability of the tire to shed water outside the tread block is brought to a minimum. The same concept goes for an off-road situation. If you are in contact with looser material, you are going to need a bigger tread void in order to reach harder material and thus increase traction. Make sure to watch the whole video in order to get a complete image. Hope that you are going to find it useful!
