i dont wanna pay the dealer cause i need to swap my fronts, then my old fronts to my dads rims, then his rears to my rims, new rears on his rims, then another set onto my extra rims. will warrior rear rims fit on a 02 raptor?

I have seen tire changing rigs for sale at farm supply stores. No idea how well they work. At least get a set of tire irons, like the nice flat ones. I wouldn't try doing it with just a set of old screw drivers.

i tis very difficult to do it without a machine i would seriously recomend just paying the dealer if you cant find a shop to do it! But lets get reall how often do you really need to change your tires once a year max??

1 my fronts
2 my old fronts to my dads
3 my dads rears to my rears itps
4 my dads new rears on his rims
5 my tires from my itps to my stock rims

say they charge 5 a tire, theres 50 right there. mights well spend 60 and get a machine. then my friends can give me 5 a set i change for them. my friend got a machine from harbor fraight for 55 but theres none by me, and he lives in pa....

I've got a tire changer... cost $50. (Had to drill some holes in the concrete and stick some anchors in there. I then got extra bolts, cut the tops off and cut a line in them and screw them in flush when I'm not using it)
