Hi
I used to do it the old fashion way
get someone to stand on the wheel & run over the edge with my transit van.
works most of the time.

I got fed up with the local tyre places charging £10 to change a tyre then £5 to balance it, plus vat, that I've bought my own tyre machine and
balancer. I've used those cheapy manual changers and they aren't up to much. A bit flimsy but better than dancing round the rim whacking
tyre levers!

I agree. I purchased a cheap Sealey one and ended up popping a couple of ribs breaking the bead on a set of Pepperpot.. Also with in a year the poxy
bead-breaker snapped off so I'm looking out for a tyre machine either air or electric.
Depends upon what you want it for mate.
I've over 28 years in dealing with magnesium wheels. Refurbishment and can powder coat most metal parts. Visit my web site if you wish..

hi
just had a puncture and the cost was about £15 and i thought it was an easy £15. i have done the old fashion way with series 3 wheel but not being
that rough with alloys. so just thought i might get a machine or post.
cheers

think i may have some suitable air rams if you wanted to make your own ?
I'd love to give my imaginary friend a great big hug,
but this jacket makes it impossible.
