    One little trick that he did that he didn't mention, but he did do it. Every rim has a "drop centre" that's the little gully in the centre section. When you're prying off a tire over the rim, you want the opposite edge of the tire located in that little gully. That gully is what allows the tire enough movement to go out from the lip of the rim and over it.

    Definitely a easy one he did, one in 5 maybe 10! Didn't show him inflating it either, which can be tough money sometimes! It is best done with the valve core left out till you get beads seated on the rim again, allows for a greater volume of air which will help immensely! Sometimes you have to spray in a little ether and light it to get the beads to seat again! I was manually mounting tires before this dude was born! lol

    The Owner's Manual for my 1965 Chrysler shows to put the bumper jack bottom on the tire to push up against the bumper to break the bead loose, though they don't show then prying the tire off the rim. Today's drivers are so wimpy that cars don't even come with a spare. I swapped a 13" trailer tire manually and it was tough. I followed the same method, but prying the tire off was much harder than shown. The main trick when prying is to hold the opposite side of the bead down in the valley where the diameter is smaller, giving just enough room to slide the bead over the rim.

    Thanks - I did it that way (driving onto a board). The first one was not stable enough, but the second board was a go. I reversed the car on a bit, then I stopped the car and jumped additionally onto the tyre - that did the trick. I just wanted to put a new valve in. In line with Murphy's law, the valve fell into the tyre. I then added a bit of garden hose with duct-tape onto a vacuum cleaner and sucked the valve out again. Being more careful now, I placed the valve into position with a plastic cap on and then grabbed the valve by the cap with pliers to pull it thru (after having applied grease)... All good.

  • @lewis2553
    @lewis2553 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    That was smart, the way you broke it down. I'll have to try that. Dad taught me how to drive up on the edge of tire right beside the rim and go around it a little bit til it breaks down, but your way is better -- less risk of damaging the tire that's on the car. One thing you failed to explain to the audience,though, is that while you are working the tire off and back onto the rim with your tools, you need to occasionally push it to the valley in the middle of the rim on the opposite side, 180° from the part you are working on. That gives you more slack in the bead to work it over the rim with the tools. I thought the toughest part was where you were trying to get that last little bit of the first side back onto the rim, and you were working inside the tire, almost, with the tools. I've put over 35 patches on the inner tube of my right front tractor tire (before finally resorting to Slime) because of wild pear thorns. I find it easier to put the tire back on the rim by working from the rim side with a pry bar, not the tire side. You did a great job, though!👍 It was a good instructional video. Thank you. God bless you for sharing this knowledge.

Place your tire in front or back of you front tire on your vehicle, align the rubber only with your front wheel and drive upon the tire slowly. This will also break the tire from the wheel. Works great for small wheels also. Try it, you might like it. Enjoyed watching your idea.

    I used to repair flat tires using simple fiber based plug, but now they say the repair is unsafe and, therefore, not recommended. So I was looking for an inexpensive and easy way of taking tire off the rim and remount it after repairing the flat. When I was younger I saw people remove/mount without using power tools like this young man is doing. They used two pieces of leaves out of a leaf spring suspension and a big hammer. This man uses a tire iron and a heavy-duty screw driver. Anyway, it is nice to see that this job still can be done at home. Repairing tires can be done, I think, this way at home, but anything that requires balancing the tire still needs a trip to a shop that has the right tool. Thank you for showing this video.

    This is GREAT thank you! A couple things I will do differently, combining the comments other people posted here is: 1. put a old towel or cardboard down between driveway and wheel, 2. work from the back side surface of the wheel (front side down) to keep the front unmarred , 3. Use tire irons, maybe some kind of plastic coated pry tool, 4. Make sure of tire direction when I remount the tires, by marking the inward facing surface of the tire (on masking tape) with what wheel they go on, what side of truck they were on, and an arrow to line up with valve stem. I have wider rears than fronts (wheels)
    Of course I really appreciate the video for us DIY folks with simple tools most everyone has, like screwdrivers, regular hammer and tweezers instead of a valve tool! Excellent. I am going to paint my 1964 C10 stock rims but I want to do them with out tires on, I have seen tutorials to paint wheels with tires still on but I just can’t do it - want to paint the entire wheel, both sides, and not have a gap on the rim edge or overspray on the tires...and “I got more time than money” to pay someone to dismount and remount. This technique might be same time as doing all that masking on both sides of 4 wheels anyway, and I could use the exercise haha
