Bead breakers

Have a No-Mar motorcycle tire changer, works well enough on other types of tires.

For small tires? Jump up and down on it.

Been there, tried that. Typically works for one side, but not the other (just went through this last month). Not the safest activity either :eek:
A bead breaker is a way better solution.

oh, sorry, you said 'Breaking Bead'..........
 
Mine looks just like the Harbor Freight one, but IIRC I got it from J.C. Whitney many years ago.

So every tire you squeeze comes off both wheel halves at the same time?
If I did that, it would pop off one wheel half and remain firmly adhered to the other.
How do you do it?

never had a problem with that.
 
I got a tire iron set from Harbor Freight with a bead breaker. Works well on airplane tires.

For tractor tires I run over them with another tractor.

Pretty slow, wouldn't recommend it with a Bonanza. Maybe an Aztec.



Why choose only one?

Because if it is booze, it makes the wimmen thing a whole bunch more difficult.

When Brendan Behan (the great Irish poet and redoubtable boozer) was in alcohol rehab, one of the nuns asked him how the abstinence thing was going. He replied, "Well, sister, it makes the farney a lot easier." The nun asked, "farney?". "You know, sister, the FARNEY, the farnication." (You've gotta say it with an Irish brogue to get the full effect.)
