[Shop-talk] home grown tyre removal

[Jim Franklin]

The tools good enough to not damage the rims will cost about the same as removing 4 tires at the shop. Cheap tools, patience, and scrap rim protection (old hose, etc) will work too. If you've never removed a tire, watch a few videos for methodologies.
