Si .. I remember seeing a program on 4 x 4's in iceland and they run the tyres almost flat when so called off roading, so much so that occasionally the tubeless tyre would break its seal on the rim .... I marvelled at the simplistic way they resealed it back on the rim without taking the wheel off .................... with an aerosol of lighter fuel they would squirt it in the tyre and then ignite it ..... Whoooosh and before it cooled down they would then re-inflate .......... it only took seconds.
And children please do not try this at home without parental guidance ..
