    Just get some 4x2.................cut 2 at 600mm to lay your wheel on,and cut another at 1200mm,and a piece of 25x75 or thereabouts.
    Put wheel on the 2 600's so that disk isn't touching anything,park your car next to it and use the long bit under the jack supports on side of car,put 25mm piece upright on tyre against the rims edge,one foot on tyre and a quick push down,may take a few goes then pop.............piece of cake

    Hey, before you go making random abusive posts, here's a hint, learn how to spell and use words appropriately.

    Like "you're".

    Now now ! Give the lad a break, it's all pink where he is ya know !
    Hard to think, when your in the pink !! (does a double check on his punctuation)
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    yeah, I have seen that method on the interweb before. Looks like a go. I built a bead breaker on the weekend out of steel. Changed front tyre and it worked a minter. Tried changing rear and I hadnt built it big enough to fit the rear into it. Tried a bit of a dodge and ended up breaking it.(the bead breaker not the bead). Got a little annoyed. After some swinging on the damn thing it let go so all in good and new tyres are on but next time, if I can get a proper bead breaker for a reasonable price, I could do without the frustration.

    I bought on on TM 6 months back, seems pretty good, need to use a block of wood for smaller tyres but it does go in parallel. I'll PM you a email, I assume they were making them.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    yep. Got a good one off the guy F5 told me about. $120 and works a treat.


    Very mint.

    You looking for one? I can look up where I got it from and post details if you like.
