====================================================
Just speaking on T/R rims, "NO", if you ever have a need for a tire shop to
dismount/mount a tire watch very closely as they lay the rim down on the
machine and then screw the very large & heavy nut down to hold the rim in
place, when the hydralic arm comes up from underneath if the rim moves as
much as 1/2" the rim is now bent, BTDT way too many times, the large screw
has to been firmly locked in place so as the rim cannot move, just be sure
to tell the installer this.  "FT"
