This former farmer boy ALWAYS enjoys seeing every episode of your channel, Pete!!! You're a GREAT man, my friend, and over a quarter million of us really appreciate all you do!!! ;o)
Being an ole time service person, luv the fact you are so methodical. Might take a bit longer, but you know the job is correct. Goes along with the old saying" If you don't have time to do the job right the first time, how will you have time to correct your mistakes/problems a second/third time." 👍💪🙏
Golly, you managed to get that tire on that rim without any special language haha. I can't always guarantee that when I do the same operation with my farm trailer tires.
Young dog just taught old dog new tricks. Didn't know about the baby powder and the visegrip trick. Those are going to come in handy as I have several tires which I am going to be putting tubes in here in the near future. She's looking really good so far. Great job young man.
14min. 348 on the thumbs up scale. I'm closing the gap. It wont be long till I'm number one. Selfish, yes. What a great ...GREAT JOB! I can't wait to see you proudly drive it down the street.
Thank you again so much for your videos, I work for a tree service and just got home, made me so happy to see your new video! I want you to understand just how happy you make all of us with your content. Please keep being you! And thank you again!
Looking good, it's coming right along. You know I had someone do the rear tires on my John Deere 1020 and it cost about a quarter of the overall cost for just labor alone, so you saved yourself a good chunk of money. Good one, thanks Pete, have a nice day.
Great work on tractor. I have done it both ways. mounted my own several times. I have a manual tire changer for car size tires and have done several front tires through the years. Last year I had the tire guys do my rears on one tractor because getting older and back problems so I guessed it would be cheaper to pay there than at the chiropractor. HAHA . Looking good.
I have a small farm, mostly as a time keeper in my early retirement. Not only have I learned a great deal from you, your cadence, voice, and nature have brought me peace on many hard days. I appreciate you and your family. Thank you.
I’ve been watching too much of the Tire Doctor here in UA-cam, I was expecting Pete to throw the spoon on the ground and do a little dance when he was all done!
Wow! I hit the jackpot!. I got on and went looking for this video and low and behold I found one for a Farmall Cub restoration also!. So watched that, and then booted this up. and as usual enjoyed every minute of it of course. I have to admit it brought back a lot of memories. watching this. I"m old enough to remember changing and fixing car tires, truck tires long before tubless tires became the norm. everyone back in the 40's and early 50's had all the needed tools and accessories to pull a tire. break it down. patch the hold with the patching kit. in the little round can. put it back together again same process as we seen here just smaller tire. and then get the hand pump (bycylce pump most times, foot hand job, and after mounting it blowing it up drop er down and away we go!. can't count the amount of flats and new tires I've mounted in my day. loved every minute of this. Why? because I sipped my coffee and watche you do all the work Pete. with great expertise I might add. thank you so much for sharing. ECF
Awesome 👌 I change tires on my, but don't use tubes. When you're changing 8 drive tires it's gets to be some back breaking labor. Little different situation, but the concept is the same. Great job as usual Pete. Let me know when you're ready and I'll bring my M up that was my grandfather's who passed it on to me and let you restore it like this. Lol. Peace be with you and your family and keep up the great work! 👍
Hi pete you certainly are an all rounder i am a bit of a handyman but you are the best. say hello to hilary she is certainly a hard worker too all the best from sydney australia 👍👍
Pete, that was great...! I never saw any tire go on a rim that easy...! I used to do Logging truck Tires up in Maine, some were split rim but a lot were NOT...! =) She's looking better all the time, nice work and you pay attention to detail..! Awesome...! =)
Your at the best point with assembly that I enjoy the most,I did with my fords, finishing was the best for me,I’m sure Pete you feel it coming on. See ya.
On my motorcycle I found it easier to blow up the tube first, let most of the air out of it, then put it on the rim. This helped to prevent folds in the tube. Once on the rim I'd let all the air out to make getting the second bead on the rim.
I think this would work better as neighbor who originally did the tires pinched both tubes on the rear of my tractor. I will definitely try it when I fix it
Well, your video certainly makes mounting tires look relatively easy. The vise-grip trick is one I will have to employ the next time I have to change a tire. The baby powder trick is a good one too, and one that I also expect to use when putting tubes in tires. Thank you for posting this video.
HI there Pete. Who knew putting a tyre on could be do much fun. The same principles applied for my racing cycle. You are a natural Teacher. I learned some valuable lesson from you. Thanks so much!
Let me add that those tires are directional. The V of the lugs should point forward. When the tries are pulling, and slipping, they should push dirt outward - not pull dirt and slime inward. You did that. It just deserves a comment.
Obviously not pertinent to this video but I love it when you share farm dinners with us. Mostly to see your different simple recipes. I’ve recently made your Cornell chicken sauce and have done pork chops in the same fashion you do. I am going to make the white sauce for thanksgiving and try it on the turkey.
I followed your method for mounting a tire and new tube on my tractor. Your method works well. I used the baby power and Murphy’s tire lube. That Murphy’s tire lube makes a big difference. Thanks for the video.
Morning Pete< love your videos. as a old farm service guy I found it best mounting the rear tires if you put just enough air in the tube to make it stand up, reduced risk of pinching with bar.
Thx Pete just got finished putting 13.6x38’s on my JD 2510 - this video has been invaluable for me to get them installed and also enjoy all your videos around your farm and your stories.
Some of the stuff you said with a straight face, lol. I like to think that everybody doesn't take you seriously when you're making a joke. Looking in the engine compartment of a farm hauling truck as a kid I asked the farmer where the battery was. It's got a magneto he said. Here's my sign under the floor boards. Too funny!
Baby's got new shoes!! I tested a theory once. Swapping M/C tires by hand is a PITA, so, I grabbed an aerosol can of silicone to lube the bead. Sure made the job easier! But, I was smart enough to use a grease pencil to mark the rim/tire. Went on a road trip and checked it. 100hp at the rear wheel, and ridden "spiritedly", the tire rotated on the rim and did away with my perfect balancing job. Ugh. LOL
Something I've found always helped me was to put enough air in the tube for it to start to take shape, that helps hold it away from the bead so there's less chance of pinching the tube.
As someone who has installed more tires by hand than I care to recall, great job! I have 2 tips for anyone that attempts this. Don't be greedy, do small sections of rubber over the rim, it's faster and easier. Never stick your fingers, where you wouldn't stick your pecker. When you are inflating the tire or tube, that area between the rubber and rim can disappear faster then you can blink.
Worst tires to install are the little ones. Last year I replaced them on a tow behind garden cart, which were basically wheel barrow tires. I also had a funky little mower called a Simplicity Sunrunner that had like 5 inch rims on the rear wheels. All were more of a pain to install compared to the 12 inch garden tractor tires. Enjoy your videos, it brings me back to when I visited my grandpa's small dairy farm when I was a kid.
I've seen car and truck tires that didn't go on that smooth. You're the man Mr. Pete! Mama used to say she could tell when I had changed the oil in the tractors by the oil and grease on my bib overalls. 😂
Great instructional video. Neat tip with the vice grips & baby powder. Never thought of that. Perfect restoration. The old gal has a new lease on Life. Thanks Pete.
I install all my car tires by hand, none have inner tubes. The best part is hearing the PoP when it fully seats. I use Windex as an install lube. Will now be tackling my 12x24 1956 International 300 tires - Thanks so much for this video.
Learned something thank you kind friend. I never thought to purchase direct for tractor tires!! I would totally install my own or have and do. Just didn't didn't about.... thank you kind friend
I love these videos! Thank you Pete for sharing your farm life with us. It’s that there’s a tire brand named Titus. I bet that makes your Titus very proud 🥹
One of my fondest memories from trips made to my Uncle’s farm, was helping him replace a tube in a rear tractor tire. It was a job and a half! Maybe it was so tough because it was on a green tractor, I don’t know
Thanks Pete, I watched this when it originally aired but needed a refresher since I'll be putting the tire on my Ferguson 35 rears. Always good for a refresher.
This former farmer boy ALWAYS enjoys seeing every episode of your channel, Pete!!! You're a GREAT man, my friend, and over a quarter million of us really appreciate all you do!!! ;o)
Over 330 thousand subscribers and heading to 500 thousand.
Where do you get all your knowledge you are super teacher keep it up

Goes along with the old saying" If you don't have time to do the job right the first time, how will you have time to correct your mistakes/problems a second/third time." 👍💪🙏
Pete love all the restoration videos keep making the best restoration videos on UA-cam.
I would never imagined a architect explaining me the finesses of changing tractor tires. Thank you Pete!
I never thought I would enjoy watching someone mounting tractor tires but Pete makes it interesting and informative. Love the tractor restorations!!!
😂😂😂👍
Golly, you managed to get that tire on that rim without any special language haha. I can't always guarantee that when I do the same operation with my farm trailer tires.
Pete is a national treasure. I have rewatched each of these Super C videos a dozen times.
Young dog just taught old dog new tricks. Didn't know about the baby powder and the visegrip trick. Those are going to come in handy as I have several tires which I am going to be putting tubes in here in the near future. She's looking really good so far. Great job young man.
Remember to leave the tube stem until last when installing the tyre ,otherwise you can damage the stem
Thanks Pete, it makes my day watching you work on the tractor.
Nice to see you back at it with the super cant wait to see it back together and working great job pete thanks for sharing
14min. 348 on the thumbs up scale. I'm closing the gap. It wont be long till I'm number one. Selfish, yes. What a great ...GREAT JOB! I can't wait to see you proudly drive it down the street.
Woo the Tires are here! The Tires are here! Always a good day when the Tires are here!
Pete, your video made me “TIREd” today!!!!
Thank you again so much for your videos, I work for a tree service and just got home, made me so happy to see your new video!
I want you to understand just how happy you make all of us with your content. Please keep being you! And thank you again!
I put those Titans on my H and they are great. Awesome traction even plowing. Way better than the Firestone’s that pre-dated my existence!
Love to see these old Farmalls being brought back to original condition, Thank you so much Pete.
Neat trick with the vice-grip. At 74 yrs. old ,it's not too late to learn something new.Enjoyed the video.
Looking good, it's coming right along. You know I had someone do the rear tires on my John Deere 1020 and it cost about a quarter of the overall cost for just labor alone, so you saved yourself a good chunk of money. Good one, thanks Pete, have a nice day.
Job well done, Pete. I really enjoy your tractor restoration videos. There's something about preserving these old gals that just feels good.
Pete, sometimes you make it look so easy, but love seeing each video and the different projects you and your family work on together.
Beautiful job Pete, you certainly know how to do tractor stuff.
I love that vice grip trick....
Neat tip for DIY viewers!
I run a tire shop and you did an excellent job explaining and installing these tires. Everything you did is exactly what we do! Excellent job! 💯
I never get "tired" of these videos....😎
Great job can’t wait for more tractor videos!
Great job Pete. Straight forward teaching.
Great work on tractor. I have done it both ways. mounted my own several times. I have a manual tire changer for car size tires and have done several front tires through the years.

You are doing an incredible job with that Super C...looks Awesome!
Great job for the old "girl"!!
A workhorse machine with proper care will last for generations!!
Pete, that was great...! I never saw any tire go on a rim that easy...! I used to do Logging truck Tires up in Maine, some were split rim but a lot were NOT...! =) She's looking better all the time, nice work and you pay attention to detail..! Awesome...! =)
JUST A BIG THANK YOU PETE.
Your at the best point with assembly that I enjoy the most,I did with my fords, finishing was the best for me,I’m sure Pete you feel it coming on. See ya.
Pete I always enjoy how you show us the basic steps on the things you do and also the tips like using the vice grips on the rim.
I’ve changed a couple hundred bicycle tires. Fascinating that all the steps are exactly the same, including the pre-inflate debate.
I always enjoy your videos, but especially the tractor project videos!
Having done this years ago I can't believe how easy (and fun!) you make this look!
On my motorcycle I found it easier to blow up the tube first, let most of the air out of it, then put it on the rim. This helped to prevent folds in the tube. Once on the rim I'd let all the air out to make getting the second bead on the rim.

Thanks again. Find myself coming back to this video every 6 months for s refresher when I need to mount another tractor tire.
Pete, you do a great job with your work and your explanations. It's so gratifying to watch.
Mr. Pete. All I can say is that was poetry in motion. Beautiful tires on a beautiful tractor.
I haven’t read all the comments but one important thing is that rear tractor tires are directional. Good video 😊
HI there Pete. Who knew putting a tyre on could be do much fun. The same principles applied for my racing cycle. You are a natural Teacher. I learned some valuable lesson from you. Thanks so much!
That was great Pete. You make it look so easy. Reminds me of changing tires on my bike years ago!
Lot easier watching you do it then me. I just did the same thing this weekend to some 70 year old firestone. Coming off was my issue haha
Let me add that those tires are directional. The V of the lugs should point forward. When the tries are pulling, and slipping, they should push dirt outward - not pull dirt and slime inward.
You did that. It just deserves a comment.
Even though I'll never be in this situation, still learned a lot. Cheers mate
Obviously not pertinent to this video but I love it when you share farm dinners with us. Mostly to see your different simple recipes.

Red, silver and black. Looks beautiful. Great video. All the best 🇬🇧.
That seemed quick and easy! The more you do it helps. It is looking great Pete. Thank you for keeping us part of this restoration! Hi Hillary!
Tractor tire rotation every 5k miles that’s every 77 hrs
You’re a better man than me
Pete you made that look easy
Saving a piece of IH heritage very NICE!
Brings back memories alright when l was on the farm Pete , good job 👏 cheers
Great job,,,, fix anything,,!!! Good to see someone take their time and do a good job with all that they do,,,,,,, lot of lazy folks these days,,,,,
Baby's got new shoes!! I tested a theory once. Swapping M/C tires by hand is a PITA, so, I grabbed an aerosol can of silicone to lube the bead. Sure made the job easier!

Pete, that little beauty is moving right along. Really looking forward to seeing her back in the field and purring along. We'll done brother. 👍
Now you have a rolling chassis. That is a goal of yours I'm sure. One step closer. Looks good, Pete 👍👍👍✌️
Whelp. My morning is now perfect. Thanks for the great content Pete!!!!
Great video as always Pete 👍🏻
Something I've found always helped me was to put enough air in the tube for it to start to take shape, that helps hold it away from the bead so there's less chance of pinching the tube.
The Super C is looking great.
We enjoy your channel. We have a small 20 acre farm in GA. GO DAWGS!
The tractor is looking Awsome you really do a great job on refurbishing them
Moving right along looking good Pete. ❤

Good afternoon Pete, great job. I'm going to try this on my skidder tire. Thank you Steve from N.B
I love seeing others putting tyres on. I done enough tyres changes for my live time.
Another satisfying video! We had a farmall like that when I was a kid! My dad kept me on it all day but I loved it! Love the old metal!
She's rolling, time to get smoke! Looking good...have a great day see you next time.
Learned something thank you kind friend. I never thought to purchase direct for tractor tires!! I would totally install my own or have and do. Just didn't didn't about.... thank you kind friend

Thanks Pete, I watched this when it originally aired but needed a refresher since I'll be putting the tire on my Ferguson 35 rears. Always good for a refresher.
Fantastic channel, watching from Australia and it's awesome 👍
Love the vice grip idea...wish I had known of that years ago! Thanks Pete
I've been there before, a vise-grip on the rim is a great idea. Thanks
Not exactly my favorite thing to watch, and it beats the "news" by a thousand percent. Thank you.
Thanks for this video, I have to replace the rear tire on my H . I'm finally restoring.
