    Im probably going to do it at my old mans I know he has two levers. Ill try track down a third one so its super easy. Ive gotta get some 35 inch silverstone muddies ( pretty much tractor tyres) off the rims so hopefully it wont be too hard. Im told these muddies were offroad only and dont have any steel in them so that should make it easier I guess haha

    Well I dont wanna get ahead of myself here but I rekon I got pretty gun at pullin tyres off in the yard haha managed to do all 8 that I had to do today within a couple of hours and now the right tyres are on the right rima for what I want. Might just set up a tire business strippin tyres with the high lift and some levers haha

    After watching the Video, I might have a crack at it myself next time I get new tires.

    You can also use that El-Cheapo tyre shine that's in a blue can and costs about 3 Bucks. Really good in hot dry weather as it doesnt dry out. Its basically silicone so it stays slippery.
