    If I have jacked up my car and switched the rims, does this count as experience?

    Ugh...stop making a mockery of this thread, folks.....

    SprayGUN, they are a specialized high end tuner, not a tire shop...the employee is most likely for installing customer's wheel purchases....

    i was just wondering. i worked as a tire tech for some months and was suposed to do alot of custom wheels and tires but ended up doing tire work like canadian tire. wasn't enjoyable. i loved getting big custom rims in and fitting them though.

    By specialist they are talking about being able to deal with huge rims with low profile tires with the possibility of run flats without damaging the rims or tires.
    Not very often will you be handling 45+ sidewalls which is piss.

    If I wasnt settled into my job I would jump on this, cant believe the right person hasnt come along yet.

    Basically, if you have never mounted a tire with a 30 series sidewall, shut the fuck up. They will not hire you. You think you would be useful, when you are hired to speed shit up, and the first set of 24's that come in, you can't even get the bead broken without fucking up the rim.

    Don't even bother wasting their time.

    30 series sidewalls. I HATE THEM lol.

    I remember my first set of tires. On 19" Chrome Rims for a bmw. I found out then what it was like to sweat bullits. Such a rough time putting this tires on. What made it worse for me was the fact they were normal mount instead of reverse mount.

    mounting your 65 sidewall truck tires and jumping into 30s, 35s, 40s is a big change IMO, you can't just push the sidewall down with your hands, you should be pretty fken proficient in using 2 bead levers as well (IMO thats the cleanest fastest way to do low pros) , the hardest tires i've done (i know there are worse) were on an 07 911, 19's w/ 30 sidewall, took about 45mins with a coworker (my first time with such tire dimensions and the owner watching us, which makes it twice as shitty )

    what models of mounter/balancer do you guys have (i'm guessing Hunter something..)
