Changing ATV tires...thats one of the things that I gladly pay the bike shop to break their knuckles.. just call me when they are done.
i agree most of the time i will have the shop do it. if i am out ride n and i need a quick fix good old 2x4 and high lift under the bumper of my truck.
i used to do lawn and garden tires and automotive ones, but i've never done the atv ones. just sucks because i have outer beadlocks so i just need the inside bead broken. should be easy to get the new ones mounted
my favorite tools when it comes to changing the tires would be the shops.........its to hard to do. and for only 10$ a wheel its a no brainer when it would probley take me an hour to do one 1 tire
ive done both and it would take me alot longer to change quad tires than car tires. quad tires are smaller and have a thicker sidewall/bead. unless the automotive tires are 33s or bigger. than atv tires are easier. but i just use the good ole flat screwdriver, hammer and my big self standing on it
the worse is changing a tube on a 50 like my crf50 the tube got a hole in it forget it I had the shop do it he charged me 30$ to do it thats how much of a pain it is
Damn wish it was only $10 around here. Everyone around me that does atv tires is $20-$25...
im gettin mine changed today for free lol, the local mechanic company guy said he would od it for me since im his biggest customer lol
Built this outa bent up scrap aluminum bout 15 yrs ago for karts. Works for quads too. Use a soapy wheelbarrow innertube tween rim & tire to start the fill.
