[Healeys] tire remover

[i erbs]

And this is why along with worrying about broken or loose spokes, I
switched my 48 spoke wires out for disc wheel/disc brakes on my car. Yes
wires look a lot sexier, but I never worry about tubes or spokes anymore.
Plus the little chrome wheel covers are cute.
Cheers and good luck with the tire job
