TUFFIOMManual Tire Changer, Portable Hand Bead Breaker Mounting Tool for 8” to 16” Tires, for Home Garage Small Auto Shop

I got this so I could change my own tires out and because it was less than the same exact one from harbor freight. , it works great. I have watched a ton of videos on you tube about using this but I can’t seem to get it right…lol don’t get me wrong, it’s truly user error on my part but that said, it still makes it 100x easier to dismount and remount a tire using this tool than just doing it on the ground! I honestly think I did not use enough soap in the water to make things slippery enough. I’ll redo my soapy water mix next time.

If you have an emergency is very good to have it .I took 8 tires out of some rims it took me some time because I never done it myself but it was very effective it does the job obviously in not a commercial machine but very handy to have . ✌️✌️🙏

It makes it possible to change tires at home. Now I know some of you are thinking "why?!?!?" But I get tired of sitting at a tire shop for hours watching them goof around and then when they finally get to my car they put the directional tires on backward and then I have to wait another hour or two for them to correct. These are strong enough to last for many tires at home... however be careful because the bead breaker will bend (it needs better support) if you're not careful. But I've changed up to 18" low profile "police" tires on this. It's not "easy" compared to large sidewall tires, but you can do it.

WONDERFUL

First time using it on a lawnmower tire it worked fine. Second time using it on some ATV tires that the wheel has a wide lip under the bead, while breaking the bead it bent one of the pins that holds the bead breaker together and bent the bottom part of the frame, broke one of the chineseium bolts holding the bottom part of the frame together. Then while tightening the top hold down the threads in the top broke loose and got stuck in the hold down upper section. The threads are held in by 2 tiny spot welds. Finally fished the female thread section out of the upper hold down, drilled 4 holes through the tube, reinserted the threaded part and welded it in with rosette welds. Replace the junk bolts and pins and was able to finish the ATV tires.The thing works, just be prepared to replace pins, bolts and even weld it back together.Also make sure you use very strong concrete anchors to hold it down. You put a huge amount of force pulling up on at least one side while breaking the bead. It's not just side force while taking the tire off or putting it on. Now that it's fixed I'm guessing it should last quite a while.

He loves it! Great father's day gift.

I've only used this for one tire so far but using it is SO much easier that wrestling with the tire on the ground with a couple of small tire irons. I should have bought one sooner.

I have to warn other consumers in the market for a quality product at a good value. Unfortunately this is not it. The metal is weak and inferior when placed under the pressures that come along with dismounting and mounting some tires. The head on the one I purchased snapped off while trying to dismount a small trailer tire. Refund, please. Now you know.
