Tire Irons
These tire irons give you the leverage you need to change pneumatic vehicle tires.
Use spoon, tubeless, and snake style tire irons to both remove and mount tires from wheel rims. Spoon style tire irons are good for tires with soft inner tubes because they have rounded edges that won’t puncture or damage the tubes. The bent end of the curved-spoon tire irons can slide under tire beads more easily than straight ends. Tubeless style tire irons have a thin blade that slips under tight tire beads. They’re best for tubeless tires because their blade may damage tires with soft tubes. The snake style tire irons have the longest overall length for the extra leverage you’ll need to replace tires with large rim diameters, up to 15”, on center post tire changers.
Bead-breaker and gooseneck style tire irons only remove tires from wheel rims. Strike these tire irons with a rubber mallet to release the grip between the edge of the tire and the wheel rim. With a long neck, the gooseneck style tire irons are best for large tires, such as those on trucks and buses.
To remove truck lock rings on tires with multi-piece wheel rims, select the lock-ring style tire irons. Use them in pairs to pry the lock rings apart.

Tire Changers
Safely replace worn pneumatic tires. To keep your wheel from wobbling, these tire changers have a mounting shaft, a spacer sleeve with a locking nut, and a shaft support barrel to secure the tire in place. Use the shaft support barrel for extra support when changing large wheels, such as those on ATVs and small trucks. These tire changers come with a curved tire iron to easily mount and remove tires with a 12” rim diameter or smaller. For tires with a diameter larger than 12”, you’ll need a snake style tire iron (sold separately).
Bench-mount tire changers are best for small tires. For easy accessibility, they raise your workstation to waist height. They also mount to standard, four-position rim-clamp tire machines.
Floor-mount tire changers are extra stable for large tires. Their built-in bead breaker gives you more leverage than hand-held bead breakers, making it easier to release the tire. Adjust the bead breaker to accommodate your tire’s size.
