That seems too easy?

Easy enough with them greasy harbor freight tires...

That is one of my tricks though. Quit giving away ma secrets that every old guy knew back in the day.

EDIT: The guy that showed me this had a mount for the rim anchored into the garage and used a boat trailer reel to pull the rope. Very few tires can be pulled like this by hand.

Or- at the end of the rope, twist a leverage bar in and sometimes the bar will give enough leverage against the wheel to pull the rope.

That is a neat technique for real. Almost seems fake. Now I need some magic technique for removing tires from rims, like rusty rims…

It’s a sad day on DIYGK when WTR has to reply to and bump his own threads. Don’t be so poor that you can’t pay him some attention!

Ha! I've been using this trick for decades with mountain bike tires(big help with belted tires), but never even thought of trying with kart/mower/ etc.... rims.

Sometimes things get under the radar. Sunday 7 PM? No wonder....
Only about 2 weeks too late for me....
What other lame excuses can I come up with?

12 inch tire on a 10 inch rim? I didn't see any lube or hear any cussing. If it had more effort, I might try it, but it looked too easy, so, how can it be true?

 

[Grizzlymi]

No lube, all rope, that simple!

Even when I have used that technic with mountain bike tires, I wasn't that easy.

I read that in Mario's voice...

Those tires are oily.
