How to manually remove a tire from rim. Or in Australian, how to manually remove a TYRE from a rim. This video is specific for how to remove a car tyre from a rim, which can be pretty difficult. Especially because we're removing the tyre by hand!
Good job. I appreciate you not cutting the video when the going gets rough because it gives us a realistic view of what to expect. Ive noticed a lot of guys will cut out the hard and difficult parts before they continue.👍
What difficult parts? And question is why? Thiers always a reason
The difficult parts would be me wresting with a tyre and tyre levers like I have no idea what I'm doing. And why any other youtuber would cut it out? The answer is twofold 1: Cutting it out would make them look like less of an idiot. But I don't care how I look 2: Cutting it out would reduce the length of the video, increasing engagement and view duration, therefore pleasing the youtube algorithm Neither of those goals is how I roll
@@Alex.G I hope you come back someday Alex - or even just a video to show us what you've been up to and where you've been with the Patrol. Cheers
A good attempt by a person not accustomed to tyre removal. Two things i would suggest, DONT use WD-40 its lubrication is somehow different to a dish soap solution. Make a dish soap solution up and put it in a trigger spray, very handy if you are going to the middle of nowhere. The second one is get a LARGE nylon faced hammer, its much better than the club hammer in the video. You can hit the tyre irons without damaging them, and if you are smacking the tyre and catch the wheel you dont take a chunk out of the wheel!
Hint. By standing on the opposite side of tire when 1st trying to let it off, makes it a whole lot easier. It will place bead in deepest part of rim, resulting in far less leverage req'd.
Five star suggestion.
bead in deepest part of rim, like you say. this is the reason for the smallest diameter of the rim. a lot of people don't realize this
@@joefalcon870 I’m 😢❤The yy😮
People know this trick?
Nice, great video man. Would definitely make my day so much easier, appreciate the schooling 👍
How to get a tire off the rim the hard way.
What’s an easier way? Other than paying someone of course lol
& no comNt, yyeap mnoovcOors😑
Mate, did you have to do that on the other 4 tyres as well? that would have been one hell of a work out.
It's a lot less effort if you leave the first tyre lever in and put the second one to lever the bead off. But grab a rubber mallet and whack the beads down with the mallet sliding the tyre lever round as you go.Don't take too big a bite of bead with the second lever.. Another way to break the bead is to drive over the tyre moving it around, then drive over the next part.
Driving over it sounds good! Unless it is the tire from the vehicle you are working on... either way this looked like an ass whooping mess. I would keep a spare 👍
Thanks for the video. I managed to remove one side of a 7.50 16 implement tyre from a trailer, just enough to replace the tube--I gave up (failed!! )trying to get the second side off. It might have worked better if I had left it on the trailer. As an exercise, I tried to remove a scrap 7.50 16 Michelin XCL from an after market land rover rim. I failed even to get one side off, bending up my ebay special "heavy duty??????" tyre levers. A bloke from Stapleton's Tyres come around to replace some 12.5 20 tyres on a front end loader. He did it on the vehicle and used a bricklayers bolster to start breaking the bead, finishing with a compressed air powered compressor to finish the bead. He used levers to complete the removal. He was a big old boy and was sweating buckets by the end of the job--I dont think this seven stone weakling would have been successful
Great video. Thank you.
I use 3 levers and alternate them as I go around, I even half release the tension on the prior lever to make a gap to get the next lever in while holding the first lever with my foot. If you take little bites it's a lot easier.
Remember kids, life lesson: DON'T BE SHY WITH THE LUBE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can you make a video of how to relace those boots
I don't know how sorry 😔
good job mate!
As a former plumber I am offended
I recommend placing the wheel face down on top of wood or cardboard, so you can use the levers on the back side instead of the front
Kudos for attempting this on the Tube !
Screw that.... I’ll just take it to the tire shop. Lol.
lazy fuck
@@elijahbutts3098 every thing about this just screams "im going to scratch the fuck out of my rims". Nothing lazy about it.
This video show be titled how to take a tire off the rim the hard way when you put the pry bar in press the opposite side in the give slack then when it needs more slack kick it again pushing into the middle of the rim were there the slack will come from or you can just pry bar it away smack it with a hammer and pry and pry making a pain in the arse out of a little job and the other thing is don't take big steps with the bar take smaller steps
sorry about off topic question, But i am unable to find a decent answer online. I am planning to buy a 4wd for off roading and going to work . I am not a tradie but i am not able to decide navara or petrol. Any help will be appreciated.
I'd get a 90's model k1500 Chevy
5.7 liter
Bro struggling hard af !
No link to the other video? I can't break the bead in the back side of mine
I've been trying to get a tire off of my rim for a whole fricken month. I love that you use WD40 and a hammer going to try this. Thank you
This vid confirmed to me I'll need 6 complete wheel and tyres on big trips 😂
Were you on the tv show lost?
😆🤣😂F%cking HILARIOUS bro!!!
It almost makes split rims seem a good idea!
I would be surprised if you did not damage the painted rim. Would be wiser to start working from the back of the rim.
No rims are not designed that way!
You have to start working on the side with with rim gully on it, so he had no choice
Great technique especially if you want to chip all the paint off your rims and promote rust and poor sealing … and next time use washing up liquid as a lubricant and make sure you have the bead in the well, that’s what it’s for!
Chipped paint, rust and poor sealing is exactly what I was going for so I'm calling this a win 😀
Im tired and I didn’t even do anything. Just watching this video
Guy dies, has heart attack trying to remove tyre from rim. Saves 5 dollars but looses his life In a twist of fate
Would it not be better taking it off the rear of the rim to avoid scratching the front of the alloy?
No, because th3 well in the rim is not the right shape … using nylon protection on your levers and making sure to use a proper lubricant and get the bead well into the well …. will work though!
It needs to come out the outer side of the rim bc the the tire needs to be sitting on the hollow well of the rim which is close to the outer side of the rim while prying out so the tire
Try from the back of the wheel the next time.
First step getting the bead over was to big a step....your could hear the tyre creeking. The lever are a bit short also for a 4x4 tyre.
I watched this, watched it again, watched a couple of other similar vids, came back and watched this one another time... And in the end got enough of the bead away from the rim with the levers to cut through it with an angle grinder.
Whether the tire is 26" or 36", removal will be about the same other than having something heavier to move around.
The bigger the tyre the easier. Front tyre on motorcycle is the hardest. Also depends on how many ply the tyre is. The more reinforced the harder
some motorcycles have bias ply which is more reinforced than radial. I feel like I've been beat up after changing mine.
@@Cleanandgood plenty of lube. I have the new style tyre bar with nylon wheels and it is a breeze. Also on front motorcycle tyres try the cable tie trick. Bit difficult on beefy back tyres
@@seanwilson471 Thanks. I'm gonna try it!
You said you popped the bead, what does that mean? I can get the backside of the tire off no problem, but the front is completely stuck and idk why
There is kind of a lip on the rim which the tyre seats onto. You need to apply pressure to this to break the tyre free. Look up "how to break a tyre bead"
@@Alex.G thank you so much
last video some person just took a screw driver & eazily slid around tire to lift it off wheel - but this shape didn’t look nearly so eazy. however - seeing as how eazily you poped remaining 2/3’s tire off rim with 1 hNd & like no effort in like 1/2 a second, I’m curious IF, after scooping a ‘ or so over rim - what would happen if one just eazily grabs tire from tread or other side, with 2 hands both to left & right of liftd over area, & just left-right wiggles it off rim with tiny 1/10th” like fliters like, lFt rIt lFt rIt lFt & so on, etc.. ?🤔 sounds too eazy, but wouldn’t be all that surprisng👋 - or actULE with knee stop-holding tire in over rim position(from tread side), grabbing both under(other)sides of tire on right left, so lifting up & away from rim disgonally left rIt, etc. - would be like a lifting - rolling right left motion.. mneah mIt wrk hU nOws.
Hi folks. If you must do this (!) try washing up detergent/soap. BobUK.
Thank you boss!!
In order to hold the wheel while you remove the tire you might want to install the wheel on the hub of the car and tighten it then you can easily pry the tire out, I never tried it but I’m gonna do it in two da easily, I’m going to do it it the day after tomorrow, it makes sense to me as long as the car is jacked up security.
So... How did that work out?
Good work, whats sad i remember being young and doing it all the time without effort now its like do i drive 30mins for someone to do it mmmmm
funy howd u break the bead
nice job
Dear, nice effort to make it to the end.
Haven't you heard? It's KZhead! Anyone can be an expert in anything around here! 😁
@@Alex.G You are absolutely right and I changed my point of view including in the initial comment. Cheers
Larger tires are actually easier. Wish my 14 inch tires were as easy as a 35.
Title should be changed to "How to easily damage a painted rim?"
🤣
Wow you did that the hard way 😅
Exactly 😅! I have watched several of these videos. I think I'm just going to pay some guy at one of these tire places to separate this rim from this tire in 2 seconds. I think I can talk someone into doing it for 10 bucks. They might even take the bad tire off my hands.
@@stevejames8293 must be his first one
@@thomasbayles8203 its simple use feet hands levers & use lump hammer losen bead
Now he did all that all he has to do is go wrestle some Crocs...
Should of watched some of the other videos on you tube
Excellent vid ! watched a bunch today as I need to pull some tires, and this was by far the best how-to for a normal sized human, I note that as I did see a bear who did it without tools :)))
thanks , now more money in the pocket for tire change ;)
Holy Christ that was funny. Think I’ll pay a shop “a tenner” instead.
Us a big peice of wood or log out it on the tyre drive your car up onto said wood/log to debead it first it will be much easier from there
Just like taking a motorcycle tire off just way f'ing harder, lol, look forward to seeing the new rims on Subaru. Jason
Wouldn’t take such a ham fisted approach on my bike, thanks ….
painful to watch. I will pay to have this done lol Good effort though mate!
@damo137 teeeeHeeheeehah oinkoink snort🐷
That’s Cos your incompetent
This is. Not difficult. There are some tricks of this as he is teaching. Follow the tricks and it is simple.
Hahah yeah fuck doing that manually
Tie your shoes
@3.15- "don't be shy with the lube" That's what she said.
Looks like someone has been skipping the physics classes.
well, to balance a car tire is not a big issue, the tire is marked telling you where to put the heavy side next to the valve, so that you will know where to put the wait on the rim to even up the score , about 1 once will fix it up, look for that little white sticker some where on the bead flat of the tire, and that is the heaviest part of the tire, put that as close to the valve as you can, put the tire on the rim, air it up , watch your finger you only have 10,...and am sure you will like to keep them all, always when airing up the tire keep hands away from the tire BEAD, that's is where the tire slaps the rim to the bead, now doing the balance? take a once of what ever kind of wait you are going to use to make the balance, go strait up from the valve and add a once, that will do the job, but you have to make double sure that you have the heavy part of the tire next to the valve, if you have the heavy part of the tire over to the left side of the valve, then, your going have to put on your once of wait led to the right side, and if you put the heave part of the tire over to the right side of the valve, then you need to add a once of let over to the left , if you can find that little round colored circle on the side of your tire put the once strait across from that round mark, and if you cant not find the mark on your tires then, like I said before, look for that little white sticker that is located on the tire it's right next to the bead of the tire , you cant miss it, after the tire is aired up and the bead is seated on the rim, then you cant find it now, line it up with the valve, add a once right strait up from it , that should do the job, and it could happen that some time 1 tire might be all balanced don't need any led, and if this might happen, you will know if it's the front, because it would shake stronger then the back tire will, because it's on the staring , I have tried the beads, didn't like it was shaking when I would take my foot of the gas pedal , so I took them out of all my 4 tires, and did it the way am telling you, works perfect no shaking nothing perfect . I called the garage , they wonted around 50 bucks for the 4, not installing them our taking them off the car, it took me around 45 min to take out the beads , aired them up, add my 1 once, slapped them back on the car and saved my 50 bucks.
That depends on how wide your rims are and whether you want your tyres properly balanced or not!
Now we know why our proffesionaly balanced tires are not balanced when you.pull out of wallmart with.8 wheel weights you.know they screwed up obviously they don't care if the tire is positioned properly pulled off 6 of the 8 weights was fine even at high speed if the weights are not near the opposite side of the stem.hole then chances are They didn't put the bead in the right place or something is wrong. Like a broken.strand in the tire or a defective tire.if it's done correctly the small amount of weight is near or opposite the valve stem.as the stem hole takes off weight and the stem adds weight including the heavy metal stem.caos you.added can throw off the balance..the old school way is to spin the tire on free bearings it should never stop in the same spot if balanced or reverse direction of the spin means it's really.heavy on one side but your bearings must spin perfectly with no.brake drag at all to check it on a non drive axle..if you see lots of weighs you most likely have a bad tire or bad Install job. I have rebalanced many tires better than the machine does it and balance can change under use for many reasons like debris or wear of tread or wear and damage to the tire usually visible uneven sidewall because the tire was curbed and damaged. The machines work.well if used correctly and the tire is installed correctly..balance it with. The tire cap on as well it's not a lot of weight but it can make a difference especially with large metal caps. Hubcaps and beauty rings can effect balance as well even picking up.rock debris can effect balance. Sand dirt etc. So proper balancing requires clean tires and clean rims and dry air inside. Many reasons why balance can be off. Put the bad tires on the back or save as Spares don't be scared to experiment with adding or subtracting weight to an obviously poorly balanced tires if it has 10 weights on it I bet there is a reason that might be obvious if you inspect it carefully air pressure can effect balance and overall tire diameter sometimes a steering pull can be corrected by adjusting air pressure more air more diameter less rolling resistance pulls other side less air pulls low air side front and rear make a difference but front has a larger effect. A bad or bent suspension can be temporarily corrected but at the expense of tire wear and possibly even driveline wear as uneven diameter can strain the driveline but the road itself outs more weight in one side usually the right side is heavier and might needs pound or so of more air to achieve the same diameter. If on a long highway that is right sloped changing lanes can change tire wear patterns in some minor cases as well some cars prefer left slope some prefer right slope nothing is perfect when it comes to our roads. The course of land itself has grooves that can wear tires to make then more or less even. But watch out for wide loads and stay in your lane please and keep your tires inflated within the safe ranges of pressure required there is a maximum rating and a minimum.safety factor in every tire if you check its specification cold tire less pressure hot tire more pressure etc . So keep near the middle of the range given expected weather and use conditions.
You bent the rim a bit
Most difficult part of taking any vehicle tire off is hiding Plumber's Crack 😂
Looks like a great way to damage a rim
Maybe so... if your rims are made of cheese
@@Alex.G alloy rims are kind of soft ish yes
Sorry about the plumbers crack 🤣🤣🤣
does that damage the rims?
razz P if you do what he's doing you will risk it when your doing a tire do little dits at a time with the pry bar and every time you get a bit off the rim stamp on the other side so it gives a bit of slack/ push down into the rim so it off the bead and is sitting more in the middle of the rim because that's were the slack will come from
Yes, very much, will chip the paint and in a short time corrosion will occur under the bead and cause leaks …
Don't listen to @Andy XOX I think he's an undercover agent for a wheel and tyre shop. They don't want you to know how easy it is to do this yourself at home, because they make big money off this in their shops. Don't become a slave to their system!
Lmfao 😂🤣wtf yo
3:18 Ten hours Later lol
Real tuff job ohh arrh really but BUT AT 17YRS OLD I MANUALY FIT & CHANGED HGV TRUCK & TRAILER TYRES WITH SLEDGE HAMMER & ×2 TYRE LEVERS WITH EASE EXCEPT FOR 2ND OR 3RD TIME WEN LEVER ALMOST REMOVED MY MANHOOD i rolled around screamed put hands in pants see it all still there then 35 min later pulled trousers down to access the damage black & yellow purple n blue
Wen a white guy got a black dick its not as god intended
We always called it “plumbers cleavage” 😂
All you gotta do is tap tire spoon with a hammer and stand on far end. It will lift the tire off in about 5 to 7 swings lol. Dude Killin himself on that baby tire lol
Yep and will be much better at removing the paint from your rims and causing them to rust …
I had to use my third leg to hold the tire iron.
You must NEVER use WD-40 on rubber. It degrades rubber and you don't want your tire bursting while you're doing 70mph. Also you must never try to teach a skill you don't have.
I totally got this skill 👌
@@Alex.G then show it in a video, this one was appallingly executed.
@@andyxox4168 hey, the tyre got removed from the rim didn't it? Exactly like the title said. I'm calling it a win and quitting while I'm ahead 😃
Rite
No easy task, thats the takeaway
i would use a oil that's no petroleum based and silicon based as the petroleum eats away at rubber
Bar hand soap best to use as slip
Easier to sit the center of the wheel in something to get the tire off the ground and just take a crow bar and a small sledge and wedge the flat end of the bar between the bead and run them beat the bar with the sledge around the wheel this accomplishes the same thing as the tire machine .
Just bought a set of falken wildpeak at3s. Got them mounted and balanced then find out 3/4 tires are "un rounded" which causes extreme shaking at 55+ mph. Now I'm watching this video so that I can return the Falkens... Moral of the story: don't buy cheap
Oh damn! That sucks :( In another one of my videos I review a set of Falken MT's and I had horrific balance issues with them too!
Removing your *TYRES* with this method... ... *TIRES* you out
Gut men
Everything's better with "lube"!
before you show how to do you should learn
Instead of working your way around like u did simply slide the tool over and keep prying up as u go
yeah nah off to the shop i go aha
Jesus, that was an ordeal
There is no secret trick about this. U took the longest time
Ah but that IS the secret trick 😉
Take less of a bite when trying to get the tire over the rim, it’ll come off way easier
You’re an Aussie but your video label has ‘tire’ not ‘tyre’?
It's a KZhead algorithm thing. Way more people search the American spelling resulting in more views, then more ad revenue
I just realized that’s a 4 lug rim
Yup, for an old Subaru L series 4wd wagon
I’m 15 and my dad left me with 5 tires and nothing to take them off with and he wants it done by today
Yeah this is not the video for you then 😆
@@Alex.G lol when he came home he realised how difficult it actually was and we are going to do it together tomorrow
rip tpms sensor.
F. That
Maybe deflate the tyre first ?
It’s already off the beads … duh!
One of those DIY that's just not worth it
A man with your lack of skills should NOT be making instructional videos.. You made that so much harder than it needed to be!
A man with your attitude should NOT be making KZhead comments. Get THAT up ya!
@@Alex.G They have _most definitely_ got a point!
😂
This looks tiring 😅
your taking way too big a bite on the tire, small bites much easier
who cares about rim paint, right ?
Exactly! I was taking the tyres off to paint the rims anyway
@@Alex.G yeah and fitting tyres back on same way 🤣🤣
Nah fuck that I'll pay someone to put them on 100% of the time haha
Hamma...mighty handa.......
Yikes you totaled the rim
Nah she was good to go, worked a charm for years. I was painting them anyway so i didn't mind a few scratches.
