OD,

Thanks for sharing the tire tool experiences.

I purchased their 'no mar' bar and used it with a Harbor Freight tire 
changer for years, until I finally just bought a automatic tire changer 
and balancer combo.

I am glad I bought them.  The money is hard to justify as it will take 
over a hundred tire changes to pay for itself, but I really like it.

While doing the restore on my dually F350, I found out that my inner tire 
was cut from my last scrap yard run.  With the changer being so easy to 
use, I removed the tire, checked out the damage, and tried to patch it. 
Total time, about 15 mins.  Without the changer, I don't think I would 
have tried to do a dually tire on my manual one, so I would have been at 
the mercy of just buying a new tire and paying the price.

I look forward to your tool reviews.  I may add one or two.
