The good stuff starts at 6:00...thanks for a thorough and well explained video - nice effort.

[@christopherburke7042]

Absolutely excellent, thoroughly insightful presentation! You covered all the bases of my uncertainty and trepidation to perform the job myself. I will be doing this job in five minutes, whereas 10 minutes ago my knowledge of how to properly perform this job was riding a reluctant wave called zero percent. Thank you! Subscribing is a no-brainer and I am looking forward to checking out your other videos. Cheers!

Welcome to team Eastwood! Glad to have you!!! 😄

@@eastwoodco can a rim get cracked while you're clamping it down with those arms that you expanded out to lock it down

[@MrZimmaframe]

2:15 don't have it pressing on the rim/ touching the rim like that (it was compressing the rim not the tyre), if you did that with alloys it would either bend or ruin the alloy wheel.

Great video Matt. Thanks for sharing your knowledge Artie 😊

[@eastwoodco]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@edwardm.9150]

BUT what about installing tire onto rim? Please make a video on the other half purpose of this machine. Thanks

[@MiguelRodriguez-pz8wi]

Can it do truck tires, F350 super duty?

If so can it be prevented and how?

[@nickgonzalez2707]

What year is that old coupe right behind you

[@markrandall1456]

Matt, you do a great job of explaining what you're doing and why. Thanks for breaking that down for us. (Pun intended) :-)

[@eastwoodco]
