How dangerous are those tires used in some mining industry equipment? Rimex Supply of Surrey, B.C., a wheel manufacturer and distributor, has made a video about safety procedures for handling tires. Rimex uses this example to demonstrate the potential for injury: A 29.5×29 tire and wheel inflated at 100 lb psi contains 359,006 ft lb of energy. If released, it could hurl a 200-lb man 1,759 ft into the air. *
