  • Mounting a car tire to the rim with no tools. It could come in handy if you have no options. Easy and great for custom wheels. Using some hand prying bars would make it easier. Thanks for watching

    Being in the emergency tire repair tool business the number one rule is practice these techniques with the tires on your vehicle in the comfort of your garage/driveway. Every tire is slightly different due to design (ply rating, sidewall thickness, steel encased carcasses, load rating, etc). A load range "B" tire as shown in the video is VERY pliable and the sidewalls are very flexible. A E load range tire (especially a used tire where the rubber has hardened and lost its flexibility) may feel like a sheet of plywood. Again, practice with your tires in a controlled and safe environment and learn the idiosyncrasies of your tire and wheel combination. Tire mounting and dismounting is 85% technique.....this is something you cannot master reading a book or watching a video. Hands on practice is key and learn on the tire/wheel combinations you'll potentially need to do this to.

    To all you bashers, wow!
    Spanky took the time to publish this to help us all. Now you attack him? WTF!
    This video title accurately describes "no tools". He did get the tire on the rim in less time that it would take to drive to the tire shop. It's clear the walk it on method does require a bit of patience.
    When you are removing the old tire, little care is needed as that tire is garbage. Roadside I have used any scrap found, then lowered the jack to use vehicle weight to press the bead free. I had a bull in a trailer once, there was a part of the trailer frame that was in perfect position.
    No I didn't have a spare rim, but I did carry a spare tire. If I had a spare rim, the spare tire would've been on it. You learn to carry a spare tire when you grow up very poor. My spare tire was not much better than the one that just failed. But I did get that onery bull to the auction just in time. And it was dead of winter. I stuck the tire under the hood while working on the old tire. I used antifreeze as lubricant. I had a half jug handy, but could've pulled it from the overflow reservoir. Another trick I found is to collect some motor oil, or tranny lube, from the dip stick. It takes several dips to get enough, but I only apply in that final area to help that.
    And there isn't a red or yellow dot on a used tire. He didn't say he was going to show you how to balance the tire, only how to get it on the rim. You can rotate as needed before you air it up. Side of road repairs are not to enable 80MPH travel, only to get you home or to the shop slowly. Balance is not a factor.
    For roadside inflation, or in the shop without power, I use the flammable spray trick to seat the bead and inflate without a pump. It just goes "POP!". Then blead a bit of pressure out as needed
    If you all want to bash this man for his video, why don't you show us how great your videos are.

    As a motorist and a cyclist, I would never have believed that it is possible to mount an automobile tire without at least some big pry bars. I have had bicycle tires that could not be mounted without at least two tire levers (although that also has to do with the limited grip of my hands on a narrow section road tire).
    I did chuckle when it was suggested that this technique be used as a roadside repair. One hell of a cartridge inflator or portable compressor would be needed.

    Great job showing others how it's possible to do on your own and save a few $ or stuck in a jam. I've done many different tire and wheel combinations both auto and motorcycle tires that have been very low profile and more difficult to do but entirely possible. My technique is also Windex which I always have on hand but what works wonders is leaving the tire out in the sun for a bit to really warm and soften them up. Goes on so much easier and I purchase a separate set of plastic trim tool kit that's has the plastic pry bars of different angles, hooks and sizes to make it scratch free installation.

      And you consider your (fantasy) situation to constitute being "stranded in the middle of nowhere"?! 🤔🤣🤣
      (You REALLY need to get out more. SMH)
      So, your 'situation' resulted in the tyre being torn completely from the rim and the rim remaining undamaged?! 🤔🤣🤣
      JOOI - today's rims are SAFETY rims - ie designed specifically to ensure the tyres will NOT come off, even under extreme conditions. How fast were you travelling and how under-inflated was your tyre to have that result?! How fast do you normally 'turn a corner'?! I've seen the results of a LOT of very serious high-speed accidents. NONE of them resulted in any tyre/s being torn from rim/s - unless the rim/s are seriously damaged / destroyed. How much damage did you cause to your front / rear end?! Striking the kerb (not curb) with force sufficient to tear a tyre from a rim is bound to cause other damage. A tyre ripped off the rim like that is unlikely to still be 'usable'. What do you propose you could / would have done even if you had 'supplies'?! Do those 'missing supplies' include a new tyre (and rim)?! Why did you not have a spare wheel?!
      Why is my puerile troll warning glowing so brightly now?! 🤔🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I have everything I need except the balancer. Gonna try one of those bubble balancers and I'll bet i'll get as good results or better than what those lazy hacks will give me at the tire shops.

    One good trick also is to warm up the tire, especially if you are in a cold storage or garage, get that thing to 50-60C hot enough that you need gloves, it will make the rubber much more pliable but also the heat expands it so the diameter actually grows too.
