I don't understand how you guys are even getting to the bead seating step... how do you mount low pro tires without a machine? Seating beads on non-stretched tires is easy, it's mounting low pros that's difficult (because of the stiffer sidewalls). If these are you methods of seatings beads, I don't want to know how you got the tires over the rim.

This = correct way, who cares if you have to pay, it's cheap.

It only costs 20 bucks to mount and balance a tire. If you don't have cash, charge it! You don't wanna mess up your rims.

$20? You're getting raped. I pay $12. :)

If you don't have $20 (or $12:)) to pay to mount a tire, there's something wrong.

Unlike some of us we dont have tire machines :p

But I just wanted to see what you guys think about these tire mounting methods. Its all for ****s and gigglez.

I wouldn't mind trying one of these ghetto methods, but if i did, i would use the rim as a spare :jae:
