- The mobile tire changer model WS-561-C is easy to transport in any van allowing you to work on the go whether on the road or onsite at a customers premises. It is an electro-hydraulic unit with its own built-in generator and air compressor. Not only is it able to change tires and then air them up, but it can be used to power any 220V or 110V accessory. The operating capacity of the tire changer ranges from 13" to 27". The compact size of the mobile tire changer frees up space for other tools and equipment in the van. The machine utilizes the conventional methods of a standard tire changing unit by means of a electro-hydraulic wheel clamping device. Breaking the bead, fitting/ removal of the tire onto the rim and hydraulic tool arms are standard operations of the mobile tire changers.

I rather use this machine for eight hours a day,Than to break my back for eight hours. Its the future......
my uncle is a truck driver and i have gone on countless trips with him and changed hundreds of tires. i must say its not that hard. like you said "work smarter, not harder." if you know what your doing its pretty easy and way faster than this lol and as your tired and taking a break, you can wait for this machine to catch up and then keep on going after you get a good 45 minute break lol ;)
I can really appreciate the engineering aspect of this machine, it's beautiful. On the other hand, i question the utility value and return on investment. I have changed 22.5s and 24.5s with a hammer and set of bars and, despite not being a particularly big guy, could probably do 8 in about half the time this machine takes. As for this demonstration - dismounting a brand new tire (not even having the bead set) from a brand new wheel is far from a real world situation.
Now let's see you do that with a still old super single that's welded to the wheel. Then and not only then I will be convinced!
Would like to see that doing something else than fatty truck tires. These things are so easy to change. Do a set of low profile runflats and then you'll impress me.
Exactly , that size tire is easy af
That's freaking awesome, thanks to woever built this thing. Definitely on my wish list
WOW!! Somebody on u-tube doing something and has on safety glasses, gloves , long pants and reasonable looking shoes!!
!?I !
Good luck getting OHSA approval. That's kinda deal breaker.
this is the best idea ive seen in a while, great job with the video. Got the tire on with great ease and is a great idea!
that is so cool! i would call them every time i got a new set. I hate borrowing somebody's truck or suv to take my tires and rims to get mounted/balanced because I drive a coupe.
I have seen a semi tire get changed out by hand faster than this machine works, in fact the tech did it without removing the rim from the truck and was done within 4 mins
How do you balance a tire with out it being aired up?
That's Awesome!!!
This is great for roadside service and fleets as well.
Innovative engineering, I hope you sell many units!
I'd like to see them use this in a real life situation, on a road call sitting on the shoulder with a road barrier. Pretty sure you wouldn't be able to pull out your little green machine
How did I get here 7am in the Saturday morning...
A better idea would be a PTO. I used to work out of my van years ago....couldn't get the smell of exhaust out of the truck.
..... I wish I'd had this machine..... as many truck tires as I have changed
"Have no fear ma'am, I'm here to help.... This will only take an hour."
Considering towing your car the closest tire shop, an hour sounds pretty efficient lol
Who doesn’t want tires on the side of the rd
Probably useful in rural areas.
Thank you. We use Ascot Tire and Tube Mounting Compound. Stuff works real well!
ill do twice as many tire changes then this. man versus machine.
Well, im a trainee at changing lorry tires, i can unmount, change tire and mount the tire back to lorry in 10 mins, professionals do all these things in 5 min, so i agree, its a bit slow.
at least it isn't loud.... I SAID AT LEAST IT ISN'T LOUD!
WHAT?
!!!!!!!I SAID AT LEEEEEAAAST ITTT ISSSN'T LLLLLOOOOUUUDDDD!!!!!
oh ! thanks !
HeavyMetalEvilien too loud
I AGREE, THERE ARE A LOT OF CLOUDS!!
I dig the lime green color!
I like this machine it's the lazy mans tire changer !!
Nice. would love to see this with smaller tires
@101savaged That is true, for a small quantity of tires. This is for changing many tires a day, week after week. Takes less toll on the body!
Thanks for sharing this is a great product that is very easier.
very intresting! i can see someone making a fleet of mobile tire changers for a business
way faster, easier and cheaper by hand, would love to see someone doing this on the side of the highway with cars flying by
That thing takes more time then the tire machines at NTB. I could change 2 tires in that anount of time.
Good for tires service beside the long road between province and town it can move to the point of task easily, it can supply many sizes of wheel rim, nice product.
how can i buy one?
That is freaking awesome.
awesome technology, far safer for the tech. good luck with this product
you got a point to show for it.
Nice setup
The machine is used to break the bead. The process is shown in this video but we were using a demonstrator tire and rim with the bead already loose. You would do everything the same as the video. The part where the technician is putting lube on the tire is where the bead would be loosened.
So where's the part where the bead is broken free? I'd also like to see what happens when this is used on a wheel with an aspect ratio/profile of 60 or lower. I doubt someone that has $1,200 rims is going to want that clamp put on it.
You can absolutely install it that way!
I guess somebody funded this concept.
Wow. You can do the same with two long bars much safer in the side of the road. A lot cheaper and faster too. This is a solution looking for a problem. I bet the government bought 255 of these.
***** tons of videos already on TH-cam of people changing truck tires with 2 bars and a hammer. It's way quicker.
I would love to make a side hustle with a standard-one💯
degreeprodigy has got a valid point
The machine is fantastic
You should also video demonstrate it installed in the back of the van.
wow easy life, nice tool
It's a very noisey bastrad but a beautiful piece of kit.
This set up is great for Hourly eployees at big fleets and older technicians, but seems way to slow for Contractors & tiremen on the fly whose pay depends on quantity and speed. If the hydraulics could be re-engineered to SAFELY run faster then I can see this system attracting a bigger audience. Clever machine nontheless. Thanks for posting.
the flimsy awkward control stand has to be redesigned
Very simple.. this good
really brillant idea
Great peice of equipment! But how much does that thing run for?
@fredriktaaje
Mostly people changing R22.5 over the road tires here in the US. Companies servicing private carrier trucks or fleets will use this. The driver calls for service, load the correct tire in the van and go!
It's a nice machine!!
... what did you say?
I SAID IT'S A NICE MACHINE!!
Thats where I started but that was in 82 at the 76 truckstop in Tulsa Okla .Yes I can probably go faster but I am getting older LOL .I am looking for a good self owned business .This and maybe a mobile wash detail
awesome. I rather do 15 plus tires with this machine than by hand. imagine repairing tires all day. Would you rather have this machine which requires little effort and causes very little damage or all day repairing by hand and putting cracks into rims trying to break bead lock.
Well i would like to see it break a bead.. cuz in this video the bead was already broken when he lifted the wheel.
yes it was .
+Pappy saw it break bead inback and front, imagine using a hammer and forks all day. I'd still choose this portable machine.
Ricky Anzley well i did not see it break the bead...but i did see the bead flopping loosely . still...better than doing it by hand i suppose.
***** agreed ,
Am I wrong in assuming you also took it a little slower to show more of the process are you selling these and what is the cost with the balancer .I am very interested and what is the smallest tire you can do with these
Dayton wheels shouldn’t be a problem, as long as they fit into the size specs for the WS-561-C. But as far as clamping and fitting/removing there is no problem.
And I know it's a truck machine, but the point remains, you unfold it to the curbside leaving the operator off the street/highway where someone can run into him.
so that was the loudest geny you could find?
I like
wouldnt it be easier to just have the compressor and a bunch of spare tires in a van instead of a whole machine?
Excellent.
@Nick Chinn But can u take the car there without a tow truck? With this thing u can
That is AWESOME.
@MrBurnTec breaking the bead is one thing but doing the entire job is what matters! Time is money. A little soapy water and a sledge hammer does the trick fast too!
That friggin thing is loud. But it sure is neat.
Does this work with normal rims? AKA ones that dont have a big whole in the middle?
Yes I would also like to know the cost of the full package too please and the smallest tire size
Looks well engineered and thought out. I'll bet the operator of this changes the 10th tire of the day as fast as he did the first. What is the solution your using to lube the tire?
what if u have alloy wheels?? still gonna use tire irons?
how would it work on a tire that is shredded or with a tire with only the side walls left
so cool.
I hate when there is no top comment section to laugh at.
This seems like something that a bureaucrat came up with.
also can you do off road equipment like a Bobcat or Case
what tyre fitter would use a bead keeper on a truck rim? if i did that at my work place id get an instant dismissal lol
This might sound crazy but why wouldn't you make it come out the back of the van so you can operate it on the side of the road or in a street without taking up two lanes. I would imagine most mobile business would come in the form of at home service or side of the road emergency repairs.
Awesome!
Wandering where can you have this installed and where can you buy tools and equipment like this?thanks
how do you break the bead before you connect the rim to the machine?
Is system available for passenger cars as well?
I can't see a unit like this being used roadside where there's no room laterally. Seems slow too. Still -- good luck with this. I'm sure someone will buy them.
id like to see that thing try to break the bead on my semi tire that arnt new and soft. would never work and would end up using bars to get it off... does it wipe your butt too?
those are for big rims.goedendag
hi from belgium,
very nice machine!!
can you do this with a 305/30/20 ? or just for 4x4 ?
see you!
i see where this is a unit you buy and put in any van you want.. but id want it to get its power from the motor..with say an extra alternator. The generator is loud.
I just checked out their website. Looks like their machines only cater for trucks and heavy vehicles.
It is made for 11R22.5 type wheels but will work for slightly larger off-road and Agricultural tires ans well as passenger tires.
That is cool.
Give me a couple of tire irons and a sledgehammer and I'll take care of business.
Unless safety standards for the trucking industry improve this machine will never be used. Specially on road service. Safety cage, wheel balance, safety stands, You're joking right? You're lucky if you see tire men use a torque wrench.
may be the optimal way is to have the extending parts to extend from the back door
what if my ride is so pimped out.. and you dont have my tire size??
Labour saving machine but I've seen a competent truck tire guy take off and install a tire with tire irons in the time it took to open the door on the van and set the machine up.
I could easily put that tire on that rim by hand, what about low profile tires?
how it works on a old tire
Too cool...
nice where can i get one
I think if they change the levers by controlling pedals it will be more efficiency... it will let the operator free hands
Did anyone else think he was going to roll the tire down the ramp for the optional balancer? lol
