I've been using tie wraps to change my tires. Recently I seen Gorilla Duck Tape being used so I had to give it a try.. It works and cheaper. I only done it on my front tire. The rear will be next year if our government opens the border

I put 5 of them around the tire

I used Myrphy's tire lubes. I bought this gallon 20 years ago. It should last until I let the Steeler's change them

@Tdinova Did you use that large clamp to break the bead,t to help keep the tire in the center of the rim as you tire ironed it on or just squish the tire to remove the tape?

I have a home made bead breaker, it looks like a standard boughten one. Once the beads are broken I use clamps to push the beads together to hold them while I tape the beads together.
