  • what a hunk of junk!

  • @MyEyesBled They're not junk. It's the people not the tool.

  • WOW, It has the wheel weight on it already. Was it in the right spot??

  • I,ve done well over a hundred set of tires in my garage for people using this tool. Worth its weight in gold...........well almost

  • Great, now I want gook food

  • typical junk from harbor freight

  • @boaterbil For 35$ you cant go wrong.......works well

  • hi does anyone have a video how to use that portable bubble tire balancer?

  • thanks for the fancy video editing tricks, but you failed in making a clear and easy to follow video

  • Video proves you should not let amatuers bust your tires.

  • Not so portable once you bolt it down. Mine is bolted to a 4' x 3' piece of heavy plywood. That's portable. I found I had to use extra tire irons (carpenter's crowbar) to get the bead over the edge of the rim.

  • A friend tried these in my tires... yeah, not so well.

    I have 235/40-17 in 17x7"s, could not be done with that thing.

  • would this b able 2 handle a 40 inch tire with a 16.5 inch rim?

  • I was ask this before but it worked on my low 15 inch rim. It doesn't matter how big the rim is because you just use a fence pole attach to the red bar as a cheater.

  • @DeeJaySantana You are absolutely correct. I don't understand the comment below from boaterbil calling it Harbor Freight junk. If it works, saves money, how is it junk? I didn't know one had to have an Atlas or Bear hydraulic tire changer to be considered not junk. The results are identical between HF and the $1500 or much more tire changers. You pay the garage man for his changer, I'll do my HF thing!

  • old school still da best braddah. two tire bars and one hamma. black lube tire grease. da best. change that tire in under a minute

  • Confucius Say: Use REAL tire lube- your beads will thank you for it! (tire lube is available at NAPA as well the little swab thingy)

  • good idea is to take the old weights off before. they may rip the bead chaffer when the tool reacches them...i started in the car business 30 years ago and had one similar to this with a bubble balancer,,,did the job...slow...but did it

  • My neighbor has one of these. Uses it for his motorcycle tires. Works great.

  • I got one of these machines. it works great. I can change a 215-60-15 tire in like 5 minutes. I use ArmorAll instead of soapy water.
