Ha- Every swear word? . I just spent two hours and still only have my rim halfway into the new tire. But I did make up many, new and exciting colorful sentence enhancers. Of course, it is possible that my insane babbling was me speaking in tongues after a curse was put on me by the Do-It-Yourselfer-Weekend-Warrior-Demons from hell who exist on the exuberant swearing and frustration of do-it-yourselfers..

I'm going on 71 and didn't think I had enough strength to do it again, but after watching your video, I'm going to get a friend over, and together, I think I will be able to handle it. Was thinking about buying a Harbor Freight mini changer, but for $60, I'll give the manual way a shot. Thanks for the refresher course.

I have never seen a tire come off the rim so easy. I use a long 2x4 lever hooked under the bumper of my truck with the tire on the ground and the right length block between the lever and the tire. It can be awkward, two people can do it more easily. I use soapy water to soak in and get the bead broken but then use any brand of shortening, (Crisco) to lube the tire bead and the rim to remove the tire from the rim and reinstall. Soapy water seems to cause rust on the rim. Once the bead is broke, the tire comes off by hand with the Crisco.

I don't like the fire method, so run a hold-down strap around the perimeter of the tire, winch tight and add 15-20 lbs of pressure, too much and it's hard to get the strap off.

Put air to it and it blows air into the contained area between the water and the tire and fills the tire till the bead seats.

If you're tossing the tire try this: cut the tire all the way around through the sidewall on both sides with a sharp knife - this basically removes the tread. Then unseat the bead (can still be difficult) and cut perpendiular to the two circles of rubber that remain using a knife and a dremel tool where the tire meets the rim (there's usually metal wire in here). I tried every technique on youtube and this method could have saved me hours of blood, sweat and tears.

HA HA! Thanks I needed that after watching 6 different videos of guys just yanking them out with their hands. I cut the old one apart but I want to save the other side.... tire shop I go! :-( Such a failure!
Fuck it dude let's go bowling
THAT SOAPY WATER WAS KEY!!! After fighting my lawn tractor tire for an hour, I opened up YT, watched your video, got myself a bottle of soapy water, and THIRTY seconds later, I was DONE. Thank you so very much!
Bought 4 new tires the other day, and was going to see about getting the tires broken down and get the new ones mounted. The local small engine place wanted.....wait for it......$17.50 per tire!!! I'm going on 71 and didn't think I had enough strength to do it again, but after watching your video, I'm going to get a friend over, and together, I think I will be able to handle it. Was thinking about buying a Harbor Freight mini changer, but for $60, I'll give the manual way a shot. Thanks for the refresher course.
It helps to have fists the size of cinder blocks.
chax2004 ... and go to the gym at least six months prior to getting a flat.
canned hams lol
chax2004 super helpful. Especially the last brake fluid part. Thanks!
I do I do
@@robertl.fallin7062 😂🤣🤣😅 Good one!
If the tyres have been on those rims for a while, don't expect the beads to let go so easily!😃
I’m too cheap to put a new tire on and will go with an inner tube. Really nicely done! You make it look easier than it is for most us!
Inner tube doesn’t fix worn out tread tho
Zero turns come with slicks tread don’t matter roll on and mow baby lol
@@rshuttTrue, but a tube will air up a lot quicker!
Man...you make it look so easy...cool detail with the cigarette...makes your work that more nonchalant as if youre not even trying...thanks for the help with your video
He just had sex
I changed one yesterday and fumbled around with it quite a bit, then decided to watch an expert here. Exactly the same, lol.
I was fighting like hell with them. I came in and watched this video, went back out and had the new tires on in a flash! I didn't have any luck with the starting fluid though. I used rachet straps to seat the bead. Great great video, THANK YOU!!
David Patterson , Thaks for watching! Glad I could help bud ! To bad the starting fluid trick didn't work for ya.... sometimes you've gotta try more then once !
@@chalprin you used break fluid not starter. Not sure if that makes a difference. I’m about to try it😂
@@Lavo68it can if you get Jon flammable brake clean
@@Lavo68He used brake cleaner. Brake fluid goes in the master cylinder.
@@MikeJones-rk1un that’s an important detail 😂
Thank you! I changed my zero turn rear tires to some more aggressive ones. Watching the steps you took really made a difference in my ability to tackle the task.
Hey do the aggressive tires tear the grass up more? Or do they work better
Best part was the brake fluid & lighter...pure genius! Gonna go take my tires off just to put them back on.
We use starting fluid for roadside semi tires They sound like a shotgun
Brake pad cleaner. Brake fluid has a high flash point. It will burn too slow.
Great help. Used starter fluid to get mine filled. Never would have thought of that trick! Thanks.
Try doing an old tire that's dried out ! It might take an hour to brake down the bead with prybars .( screwdrivers ) .
Just drive around on it flat and the beads just pop off.
@@AllenReinecke good idea. I put a plank on the tire and drove my truck up on it.
He can do it in his PJ’s
I have never seen a tire come off the rim so easy. I use a long 2x4 lever hooked under the bumper of my truck with the tire on the ground and the right length block between the lever and the tire. It can be awkward, two people can do it more easily. I use soapy water to soak in and get the bead broken but then use any brand of shortening, (Crisco) to lube the tire bead and the rim to remove the tire from the rim and reinstall. Soapy water seems to cause rust on the rim. Once the bead is broke, the tire comes off by hand with the Crisco.
Sure would like to see you make a video using the Crisco technique.
Excellent video and instruction. The brake fluid and lighter is very cool technique. Five stars! Thanks
AWESOME!!! Bought a new tire for my minibike (1970 sears bike frame) and it uses 4.10x3.50-6 size tires. I am going to try the awesome ether tire mounting method! It will be my first time mounting a tubeless tire!!!
I got the tire on the rim, but couldn’t figure out how to air up the tubeless tire. Going to try the brake fluid method now. Thanks again.
I have all those tools, except the biceps.
I'm a 63 y/o woman, my mower tire is flat, grrrrrrrr. Thank you for showing this video, I really appreciate it.
Cory, that was a very handy Utube Vid!!! Had to install new back tire on rider mower and fought the thing til was blue in the face, tried every angle, Vicegrips, the whole mess. Gave up and decided to have one of the "South of the Border used tire shops put it on. When in popped a cold one and like magic I found your video. When back out to shop and in 10 minutes had the new tire on the wheel and aired up.
This helped me out sooooo much!! Thank you!!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
I don't want to meet you in a dark alley with those hands and forearms! I have always been told I don't know my own strength, but I cannot break a tire bead. I now have my mentor in sight. 😨
The flannel pjs provide strength
It's easy to remove a new tire, let's see one that's been on for a few years.
Yup he just used 3 pounds of pressure to get that soft tire off the rim
Exactly... Just went through HELL taking off an Old Cub Cadet front tire today . no way you would break the bead with your Fists on an older dry tire . Thinking of making a Set up for the hydraulic Press to break the bead by pushing on both sides next time.
I used to be good at removing used tractor tires off the rim it would took me a minute to remove them

@jefffromjersey52 yeah, the old fist trick didn't work. I had to stand on it to break it loose. To get it back on the rim, I put pressure on it with my knees and used the screwdriver. Tires are 2 yrs old.
Thanks for the video. Helped a lot. look like a couple classic all American guys to me!
Nice video. I've fought these things quite a few times on small equipment and wheelbarrows. I pretty much do it like you showed . I have a couple tiny C -clamps that hold the partial bead in place when I am alone so I can work the other side. I don't like the fire method, so run a hold-down strap around the perimeter of the tire, winch tight and add 15-20 lbs of pressure, too much and it's hard to get the strap off.
Although I appreciate the video, the title should be “how to change a tire with TWO people”. I need more hands! 😅
Great Vid!! Love the break cleaner! Well Done!
Just changed my inner tube on my tiller. Used three 6 inch C clamps to hold tire from popping back out since I didn't have extra hands. Lubricated tire bead with P B Blaster penetrating oil. Pry with screw driver and placed clamp to keep tire from getting back over the rim. Worked great took about 15 mins.
Now THAT is a smart answer!!! Two 20cm C clamps. But where the fuck do I find those? I will look further - took the advice of chatgpt and made very thing soapy and now can't hold a thing in place. hHat a bitch of a job.
Sounds like a good reason to make a video.
I just spent 2 hours trying to get the rim back into a new tire. 20 to 30 minutes to get one side of the rim in. Then 90 minutes of extreeme colorful language and very liberal use of my sentience enhancers, I walked away. Now I caught your video and will go back at it. And let me say this- the brake fluid. That is genius.
Good job dude, great video, thanks. Please quit smoking so you can live a long life and be healthier.
Best video I've watched on best and easiest way to diy change my lawnmower tire. ty!
Hey! Struggled for days, trying to mount (2) 15 x 6.00 2 ply. Watched 10-15 videos. Bought tire changer from HF. Nada. Watched this vid, step by step. And without help- 30 mins for both..... All hail the sultan of lawn mower tire mounting!
Hey Listen, I know it's an old video but man help out a lot. I work at a trailer tire company and we mount tires by the hundreds a day, so you can imagine the amount of defective we get. And now I can salvage some on the small lawnmower tires we have just lying around. Thanks
Glad I could help ! Thanks for watching....
Thank you for taking the time to make and post this video.
Bulldogz Loverz , Hey thanks ! Thanks for watching! Hope it helps....
Thank you! I used starting fluid and it worked perfectly!
Ohhhh that was my problem...needed another set of hands to get the rim back in. You were easy on the eyes too. 😊
Appreciate the video. Saved me $50 bucks had two tires on in 15 minutes
Great video yall straight up and to the point!
Thank you thank you thank you...brake cleaner worked like a charm
Ha quite the surprise when you lit the brake cleaner fluid... nice. :)
Very cool. I'm gonna replace 4 new tires on a go cart tomorrow. Luckily for me the beed is already broke. Well done and thanks
Ok the brake fluid tip is genius! It worked! Thank you
Great video! Love the brake fluid thing! I'll be doing this in a few weeks.
Megagig , glad I could help and starting fluid works to anything flammable, don't spray to much though. And don't get discouraged if it doesn't pop on the first try, that's why I recommend something highly combustible.
I got it to work :) Worked on first try with the small front tire. The two large rear tires did take a couple of try's but worked great! I only have a tiny compressor so I had it hooked up and going pumping air as it sealed. I had the same brake clean. I noticed it evaporates quick so you gotta be kinda fast lol but all worked great. Thanks again!
Great video bro !! This helped alot, thanks.
You make it look easy! Now let's see how I do with mine. Thanks!!!
Teaching while wearing PJs and having a burner. What a legend.
This IS THE BEST tire install video because he shows you a GREAT and NECESSARY trick to get those pesky tires to seal with the brake cleaner fluid when you have my luck. My tire wouldn't even begin to seal with the tie-down trick. This video is Boss!
R Brooks , Thanks ! Appreciate that!
I really like the way you got the tire to attach to rim, I'll have to try that. Thanks for video.
I remember putting that tire back on was definitely a challenge.
Thanks for the video. Helped me a lot
While the starting fluid works and makes a great video, a ratchet strap wrapped around the tire along the tread will hold the bead tight against the rim and allow the air to inflate the tire.
Mark Welch hoodoo., like.mk
The least of the sketchy things in this video but you are right.
Where's the fun in that?
@@donaldshimkus539 You can have fun going to the ER where they might be able to save you limbs or life OR you can live a boring life of installing tires like a sane person. Hmmm I think there are lots of better ways to have fun.
@@2Truth4Liberty party pooper.
Tried it! It was going to take an act of God to break the bead ( I’m 270 and standing on it didn’t break it)and since my helper was concerned about breaking a nail, I paid ten bucks and had a pro do it. This tire won the day.
Thank you for that info it was very helpful if it wasn't for this video I wouldn't have gotten my tire back on the rim thank you
Gary Wells , Thanks for watching! Glad it helped....
Nice work man made that one easy quick
great video thank you I have a huge compressor to get the tire to seat, but if I didn't... I Love the brake clean idea.Thank you for taking your time to make this video.
Richard Thoma , thanks for watching! Glad I could help!
You can also use a ratchet strap around the center of the tire to push the sidewalls out to seat to the rim if you cant or dont want to do the brake clean trick
Richard Thoma , thanks for watching! Yes ratchet trick does work but after multiple failed attempts trying the ratchet trick. I reverted to the combustible method! Much quicker lol....
Casslakekillaz you can fill a 5 gallon bucket with water the plug the axle shaft, place the tire and rim over the bucket. Valve stem up, push down on the tire to seal against the bucket, the tire will be against the top side bead area. Put air to it and it blows air into the contained area between the water and the tire and fills the tire till the bead seats.
Pinch a set of vice grips to opposing sides of the rims, on the lips-- then use two flat screwdrivers ..I lubricate with cutting oil. Remove tire with a sawzall, bulk cutter and nipper.
I use Vice grips
If you're tossing the tire try this: cut the tire all the way around through the sidewall on both sides with a sharp knife - this basically removes the tread. Then unseat the bead (can still be difficult) and cut perpendiular to the two circles of rubber that remain using a knife and a dremel tool where the tire meets the rim (there's usually metal wire in here). I tried every technique on youtube and this method could have saved me hours of blood, sweat and tears.
Very helpful video. Thanks!
Boy, if you young and strong Nice Video but, if you old like me, only I can do is bite the tires. And now, I know why I got no teeth! Love the video, you make it look so easy!
I spent 7 years in the NAVY on submarines got hurt on one lost use of my legs I used to use the brake fluid on car tires . Thanks for on how to get it off . Even my 2 local time places want 10 bucks to remove the tire from the rim
ncrdisabled Submarine vet , Thank you for your service Sir ! Without people like you this country wouldn't be what it is.... Glad i Could be of any help for Veteran ! The combustible method has been around for a long time right ? Works good if you know what you're doing.... Hope my video helped you ! Take care Bud.
Thank's for your service man.
Thank you for your service sir!
So I tried using a ratchet strap to get it on the rim then the guy helping me knew this trick but he said starter fluid not brake clean and the tire caught on fire twice then we watched this video and it worked the first time thank you
now that worked. Took three youtube vids before mission accomplished. Thanks
Brilliant - best video out there - thanks so much from the UK - really helped
I bought a new tire to replaced the cracked up one (got tired [no pun intended] of trying to remove so I cut it off). Several swear words later, I got the new rubber on the hub. Wish I had a helper...but, I did find out that I can throw that anvil a LOT further than I thought! haha Going to try this guy's trick for the resealing.
Nice demonstration... very helpful. A ratchet strap around the outside is a great way to mount this kind of tire. I'm a little afraid of blowing my nutsack off using the explosive method...
Always looks easy but I’m having very hard time to do it myself:)
Exceptional with the starter fluid trick 👍Thank you
Bro my dad and I been struggling for years trying to get a deflated tires on rims. You’re a life savor idk how many videos I’ve watched that have wasted our time over the years. 👍🏼
Your dad is weak and innafective.
@@pilbomags488 lmao bro if you’re mad at life go have a joint 🤙🏼
Not sure if it's a good trick, but I hook the air compressor to the tire and roll it a bit with pressure on the tire while blasting the air.
Thanks for doing this video! Very Helpful!
About to try this. Good video and looks like just what my less than handy ass needs.
Hmmm, ... maybe I'll use the 2-man method, you guys made that look easy. Just bought some Carlisles and they are hard AF. Good video, keep'em coming.
Man, you have to watch out forbyour fingers. I had to watch that lighter action a few times. Good video. Thx.
Mark Hoffman , Yea just a little pop ! Lol. Glad you liked it ! Thanks for watching!
That was pretty amazing! I think you might be a more than a bit stronger than I am.
Thanks, this showed me what I was doing wrong!
Glad I could be of help ! Thanks for watching !
Great video. I mounted lug tires on my Craftsman LT2000 what a nightmare. Took me nearly 8hrs., but was not going to give up. After baking the tire in the 95 degrees sun for an hour, the rubber got soft enough to slip over the rim. What is embarrassing is that it took me so long to think of leaving the tire in the sun.
Great video, saved me lots of frustration
If u don't have a friend, use your legs, works lol
Knees 2 tire spoons and 2 Vice grips. I put an inner tube in one a few days ago
Bought a couple small tire tools from Harbor Freight they work great.
I had one many years ago where the very center of the rim, inside the tire had some rust. Was it necessary to sand it slick?
thanks brotha about to try it out now in the shop
Thanks!!! Got that job ahead of me!!! One GIGANTIC screwdriver and your imagination!!!!!! LOL...and a small explosion!!! How did you ever figure that trick out....looked like a certain Darwin moment!!! Fantastic!!!
WHO DA MAN STAN ! ! ! First time I ever seen the explosive tire mount LOVE-IT. You should get a NOBEL Prize for this.
This guy woke up and said “ I’m going to show this tire who’s boss! Wait let me smoke 💨 Cigarette for power!
On some tires you can leave the valve core out and use a ratchet strap around the middle of the tire. It helps force the tire out to the bead. Safer than brake clean or eather. That’s a good way to loose fingers or get burned.
Joe, you are the man. Ratchet strap trick worked great. Thanks
@@briandow8879 you are welcome
@@joefyda9105 I've used dog leashes, ratchet straps, chains, Paracord etc and they all work well!
Be careful with the Brake Cleaner, I would suggest using a barbecue lighter as to be further away from the rim. Otherwidse, Great job
I got some good photos of what that process can do to a hand! A lot safer to wrap a rope around the tire and twist it until it seals the bead.
Bad things only happen when people go nuts and use a 1/4 of brake clean haha. A few sprays is enough to get it done but cause no harm. They do it all the time at the local truck tire shop here.
Barbecue lighter is NOT explosive and will probably burn your tire up.
@@randymorris4679 Ratchet straps work well too.
I liked the trick with brake cleaner. Thanks!
Thank you sir old tire been on for about 10 years came off after a few tries
That was great the way you use that brake fluid and lighter
I didn't have 500 lbs of man so I'm going to the tire place.
Great video. NOTE: That is brake cleaner not brake fluid. Starting fluid also works.
@David Lintz Gasoline too!
thanks allot for that great video appreciations 🇬🇬
4 hours and two lawn mower tires are done. The old tires were stuck like glue, had to use a sledge hammer, a chisel, and three clamps to pry them off. Had to replace a valve stem and one of the tires was hard to blow up.
I just did one yesterday and thankfully k didn’t have to use any brake cleaner I was able to barely squeeze the tire and added air thankfully .
thanks man.. big help- i got it done!
CafassoFam , Glad I could help ! Thanks for watching.
Great video!!
that was awesome man thanks
I found if you go over to harbor freight they have a mini tire. Machine. Works great for discounting tires and it works pretty good for putting them back on. The only thing I can say is when I put them on I put a ratchet strap around the center of the tire crank it down that opens up the hole bigger and makes his hair slide on a lot easier next time. Maybe you should try that
Awesome job thanks
