    I use the trailer hitch on the back of my SUV. Set the tire down along the receiver's centerline, throw a scissor jack between the receiver hitch and the tire and start cranking. The jack's base is almost a copy of a tire store's presser foot. Works great too.

    Well done!
    I tried it on two 23 year big and OLD trailer tires and it did not quite get it (practically welded to the rim amazing as that sounds), so ended up using a farm jack as a clamp. I think your technique helped a lot and got it started.

    In the case of your life depends on the tyre - no questions. But IRL side effects of such a procedure aren't worthy the result. Which side effects? One may damage bumper of the car (if wood stick slides), may damage cabin if wheel jumps at the last moment, may scratch the rim, using metal tools for removing tyre. It's 21st centure! I used this way back in 1993, when I was a 15 yo boy and we didn't have tyre service in my town. The method is functional, but it is using tools, it is dangerous and dirty.
    But respect to the author for reminding.

  • @challengerbrant
    @challengerbrant 9 місяців тому +1

    is there a reason why everyone uses the font (visible side of the rim to take the tire off - can you not do it opposite way and remove from the backside incase you visual scratch or nick the rim?

    Old tire jack is this best ways came with cars in the 60s and 70s. What your doing does not always work back side of tire with raise up on ground depending how old long the tire has been on steel wheel mags are easier to break loose they want rust

      I’ve not tried this. But maybe you could get a length of rubber hose and put a slice in it lengthwise so that you can slip it over the rim to protect it. A thicker hose would obviously be better.

  • @fitness0791
    @fitness0791 Рік тому +5

    Just a few complaints about your technique... first things first you need to explain to people that you should place the rim front facing down on an old piece of carpet or something similar as to not scratch the front facing side surface of the rim... then explain that facing the rim front faced down means that you'll be removing the tire from the backside of the rim using hand tools that could very possibly damage the front facing surface causing irreparable damage... so next time remove the tire from the rim especially if they are anything but steel with hubcaps or unless your absolutely not concerned about damaging your front facing rim causing damage that can't be repaired thus not saving you any money let alone $5-$15 per tire is not worth the effort or the money if damage to the rim happens during removal/replacement of the new/old tires... great job otherwise but details matter... thanks for posting next time front rim facing down on an old piece of plush carpet or similar material would be best...

    • @chrishayes5755
      @chrishayes5755 5 місяців тому

      remove the valve core, otherwise the tire stays pressurized and will probably explode at the sidewall instead of allowing the bead to be pushed down.
