I am a tire technician and I mount at least 1 tire a day using machinery or specially made tools to do it manually. But about once every 2 years I have to do it the hard way with 2 pry bars and sadly I forget the techniques that make it easier.

For anybody who is wondering, this is just like you do it on a bike, only the rim is larger and the tire sidewall is stiffer. You want to be careful using something that's sharp at the end for a prybar to make sure you don't rip the bead or it won't hold air.

I did end up cutting som small pieces of rubber hose about 3 inches long, then slice them in half the long way. These were used at any point the prybar (I used a flat blade screwdriver) contacted the rim, just to insure I didnt chip or dimple the rim. Took me about 2x as long as you, but I feel was a good investment. Thanks again!!

a tip: lubricate well the inside of the bead facing the exterior of the wheel, it supports the friction involved in the passing over the exterior of the wheel Often, I use a mixture of about 25% liquid dish soap with water tu lube the bead I use it also for loosing the tire bead, I spread this lube and with my manual machine, it is very easy to break the bead( I spread the lube and repeatly apply the force to permit the lube to penetrate the joint)

Meanwhile the cameraman was focused on him and the tire wasn't even in frame half the video. I got the impression he was more interested in showing off how fast he could do it than trying to show anybody watching how to do it. I spent an hour after watching the other video with no progress.

Everywhere else was so booked up it would have been days before they would mess with it, apparently the beginning of covid made everyone want new tires at the sametime.

A rubber mallet can be handy to just persuade that last bit to get over the rim. Nice work and a great vid, thanks.

I went firestone today after confirming twice, but they would not put the tire after almost 12 years I paid them service. My tire was new but no sticker. Thank you for the video. I will try tomorrow by GOD will.

Awesome video. Get the $6 tire irons from HF and that will help the rim. Can also cut a rubber mat to corer the face of the rim too.

i wish all DIY videos were like this. eg. no intro of you driving to the hardware store + 5 min of small talk etc.

Start with the valve on the opposite side. The way you are doing it means the pry bars were being used right over the valve as you got the last of the bead over the rim.

I’d like to know how hot it is outside when you did that .. makes a huge difference mounting cold tires versus ones that have been sitting in hot weather or the sun ..

Do you have a video on how to remove the old wheels first?

I knew there was a way to do it manually, I did it in a bind a long time ago just needed a refresher. Thanks!

You really got me there ! I jumped on my tire for half an hour and it never got close to get in (on the easy side). Now my neighbours think i'm an idiot !
