We show you how to put a tire back on the rim of a riding mower when they come off the bead and rim.

We show three different tires in different starts of being flat and different things going on with them.

We show the process to air them up or seal them back to the bead and get air into them.

This is the easy way to get it back onto the rim that is a safe method.

Works every time, if one does not work, use two.

We use this method most often on riding mowers and snow blowers where the tire will not go back onto the rim easily.

Thank you, I did this by myself and I'm a almost 60 year old lady.

@leosweeney7955 2 years ago

I tell my customers, tubes are much cheaper than tires. As long as the dry rot isn't all the way through the sidewall and you have good tread, tube is cheapest.

I remember as a kid, watching my grandpa wrap baler twine around a small tire, then tighten it up by twisting it with a screwdriver to push the bead out. That's the sort of thing a good grandpa will teach you.

Next video, teach us the "flammable aerosol and bic lighter" method. Or are there already too many of those on Youtube?
😁

Thank you! I had trouble getting the tire on the rim properly. But after a couple of tries I got it! Your video was a great help!

After fighting with this for over an hour, I decided to smarten up and check youtube. Sir, I thank you. In less than five minutes I was up and mowing the lawn after a long winter in Montana! Thanks again!

Wow using the ratchet strap is such an awesome idea, thanks for sharing this...

@badron9245 2 years ago

After 40 years in the trucking business, I've aired up many truck tires with ether, also car tires, m/c tires and lawn tractor tires. Finally got smart and put tubes the leakers. The problem is the cheap Chinese tires after a couple of years will start to leak through the sidewalls.

Newbies at our block. Flat mower tyre....followed your instructions. Worked 🎉!!! Thank you.

@dblumenstetter 1 year ago

Hey thanks, I started my snowblower today and one of the tires was flat and off, used the ratchet strap move and got it back in. Appreciate the tip… now it definitely won’t snow.

Thank you. 65 ur old woman here. You saved me. Thanks.

We once used a strap to seat a car tire and put too much air in before removing it. The strap ended up breaking under stress, and the metal part slammed the guy inflating it right in the "you know where." He rolled around on the floor for awhile in serious pain. A lesson was learned!

Quoted $200 by local shop for repair. This worked for me. Thanks

Elderly female fixes tire following this method here. While my older sister was mowing, on her JDeere zero turn, her tire went into the beginnings of a, freshly dug, ground hog hole. (5” deep). The inside of her front tire had come away from the wheel appx 1/4”. She called me, as I repair my farms small machines, small tires, etc., Id have got to her right then, but, we live an hour apart, she told me the tire still a little air in it. I sent her this video, told her, “if you can’t do it, I can be there to do it, on the weekend”. I walked her through the video, too, and SUCCESS! My sister was so proud of herself, as I was too. These vids help us ladies out so, so much, many, many and many thanks to you my good man💛

A lot of valuable info. Never heard of bead buster or use regular screwdriver. Lost a zero turn tire in middle of yard. Only had a rope, so made it into a tourniquet by using a branch. Lol worked great.

@masterkilla77 1 year ago

Thank you. Wasn't working after a few tries. Decided to really tighten the strap as much as i physically could and that is what did the trick.

@vividahloca 3 months ago

I want to compliment you on your clarity while being instructional. You have a very friendly and positive attitude which is refreshing to watch!😊

@GregorySharp-d8z 2 months ago

Superb, a fantastic help. I could not get my ride on mower tyre to go on the beads. This showed me how.

@beckygrizz4498 1 year ago

Thanks to this video, I was able to fix my flat and off the rim tire this morning while my husband is at work! Love that and am very proud of myself for being able to do it! Thanks for the very helpful video as my lawn mower was in the middle of our driveway and I had to get the tire off to be able to get it to the air compressor! 🎉
