My son likes to go big!

 Stated talking to my boy about getting a modest little tire changing stand for the shop. Even at $22.00 to R&R a tire, ( and they won't do patched ) I figured it would be worth the money. He asked me well what about the time and labor? Hell it's a 20 min, drive to the local shop and then i have to stand around 1/2 hr, while they get too it. win win I say!
 So last night he calls me up and says pull up Craigslist and tell me what you think of this.

 A bit more than I was wanting to spend son. ??? Yea, I know dad but if it will do car tires as well, I'm gonna get it! Now Ladies and gentlemen, that's A GOOD boy! Hope It works on auto tires!

My friend, "Little Robbie" has one exactly like that and it is a wonderful machine for motorcycle tire changing.

I used it a few months ago to change out my front tire on the bike and did all four tires on my car without a hitch.  Absolutely no marring of the rims (wheels).

Yes, you need a compressor to work the tire bead breaker apparatus  but that is a minor thing.

I can't comment on the price but still I think it's a good deal.

You have to investigate to be sure the electric motor that turns the table is in good working condition and all the tools are included in the deal.

 My son has a large compressor and tank for painting. I'll remind him to check for all tools. Good to know it works on auto tires. Between the two of us I count 15 cars trucks and RV's, and he is always doing side jobs on the weekends so I should pay for itself. (sooner or later)
