You use ether not WD40. And it doesnt inflate the tire. It just seats it on the rim.
You suck at life. Why don't you quit?
My dad told me I could be anything I wanted when I grew up. So I became an Asshole.

The Material Data Safety Sheet (MSDS) from the manufacturer lists the flash point as 131 degrees F. That would make it flammable!

Brake clean/carb clean/starter fluid works better. Hell even hairspray in pinch would do.
I wouldn't use either, right down the street from my house a guy was using ether on a truck tire and static ignited it, the rim took his head right off and proceeded thru the shop roof...i wasn't there but i bet it wasn't a pretty site.
If you've ever gone off-roading in BFE and popped a bead, you better have a can of starter fluid and lighter in the glove box or you're in for a shitty afternoon.
Just remember to remove the valve stem or the tire will implode back in on it self.

No, the flash point is the temperature when the vapors can maintain a flame. The first three words of the "hazards identification" section of the MSDS I provided say "DANGER! Flammable aerosol."
Just because it won't explode like ether or gasoline doesn't mean it won't flame up with a match!

For the record: Inflammable = flammable
Also I believe the limit for flash point for flammable liquids is 100F, anything above would be combustable to another temp which would determine non-combustable.

I can resist everything but Pete's mom.
Large truck tires have bead rings that are worked on after the tire
These can and do come off with great violence

I love a nice ether explosion, and a nice ether binge.

Did this with ether to mount 225s on a 10inch wheel back in the day on my jetta....actually really easy to do.
