Another suggestion

Also, do not try this by yourself! You might need someone else to dial 911 for you
after the steel bar hits you in the head and knocks you out. :-o

Sorry, I am not kidding about this.

My son and I put 395R20s on a wheel and it took us an hour, and we were flat out
exhausted when finished:shock:

Best, least painfull (except in the wallet) way to change a tire, hire someone else and sit back and laugh at them. lol

I got 2 mounted with a Ken_tool "Superserpent bar".... 3 to go... I used 3 bead holders.... (not vice grips)... and it was a b_tch... but got it done... 3 more to go
(4 for the bobbed duece and 1 spare)

I used a heat gun to warm bead.... lots of lube and lots of elbow grease
I glad i "workout" every day... wish I was 20 yrs younger though!!!

thanks for the kind thoughts though

Yea I know tire shops up here at $20-$22 a tire to dismount and mount. Yeah it isn't worth my time to do it for that price.

But if you want to do it yourself. I can suggest a list of things to get.
1. A Monkey
2. A football

and you figure it out.

Hmmm... I was under the impression that the OP wanted to mount a set of tires, not teach the Jets how to play football... :mrgreen:
