Forgot where this was posted. If your changing tires often, just used this tool to help replace my tires on my 1880 for summer work. Works as advertised. Saved me from lifting the tire to get in place. Worth every penny. Was recommended in another thread here. Got it from harbor freight.

I use these to move / re-position airplanes and vehicles around inside the hangar without having to completely Empty the bldg to accomplish the same thing.
There’s a gadget for everything! I just put new rears on a few weeks ago and used my BX backhoe outriggers to raise and lower the rear end for lug alignment…a little help with my toes and my new tires/wheels were on! (Sitting on my Harbor Freight mechanic’s stool helps immensely!)
I simply adjust the jack used to lift the machine to studs to the wheel holes. Works every time.
