@@Jim1457a yea honestly i was assuming. i wasnt gonna try either way for one i dont have expensive rims and second even if i did i wouldnt trust myself LMFAO
heheheh, me too. My cousin and I spent about an hour on a Toyota wheel once, but that was many years ago. We didn't know what we were doing, and we we did it with carpentry pry-bars and such, but we eventually got it done after a bit of cussing. 👍
that would NEVER work with an import low profile and thats ok for steel wheels with hubcaps, but this guy would be scratching the shit out of a painted rim big time,, Hack O Rama
🤣lol, you seem to have missed the whole point guglie... It's true that lo pro tires are much harder to do, and Frank would tell you that right away, but, for you to call Frank a "hack" is fucking laughable! You should post a vid of how YOU would do it. Fwiw, I searched the low pro tires thing a while ago, and there was a great vid where a guy did it trackside, without using power tools. There were 2X4's involved, and they weren't too worried about scratching the rims. They got it done pretty fast, but not quite as fast as Frank went through that wheel in this vid. If you're worried about scratching your rims, you should probably just take it to the shop. They can do the balancing at a shop too...
@@Jim1457a oh the master mechanic judge cursed at me , shows me what kind of dullard you really are, I will double down on the fact that neither one of you knows anything about anything, its a public site princess if you don't like criticism DON'T POST HERE jackass
Question what do you think is a reasonable quote to do this at a mechanic shop I also need to replace coil plugs. I was given a first quote of $1800 I was blown away.
Well, if you're comfortable with changing plugs, then yeah, imo, $1800 is an absurd amount to pay. If you're not used to changing plugs, just be very careful not to cross thread them and make sure you don't drop anything in there when they're out. That would be a disaster... Also, it's an aluminum head so you don't want to over-tighten them. Some parts stores have loaner tools so, you might want to get a torque wrench. I went by feel because I've changed many plugs and I trust my hand. This is my daughter's car, and they were gonna charge her $1500, so that's why I did it myself. The coils are expensive, over $100 each, but you might not need to replace them. I re-used the old ones. I did see some cheaper sets of coils online, but I don't know if they would be any better than the old originals. It really was the easiest spark plug change I ever did. Everything was easy to reach. I spent a few minutes setting up my tools on a table before starting the vid. Make sure you have the right size spark plug socket when you buy the plugs. I thought I did, but this is an unusually small socket and I had to run back to the store. Good luck! 👍
Thank you! I was trying to change my 13" rims for a pop-up camper...my friend's tire machine wouldn't receive such a small rim. This worked! Thank you for showing it!
I do that to what about big truck tires I have trouble with they don't air up so fast I gotta lay on top of the tire it's a struggle do a video of Big boy tires truck tires
I have determined that I do not have the proper tools 😂 I got the beads broken, pulled the tire through one side, but can’t get it completely off. Good thing I don’t need it yet. If you’re still reading comments, any tips?
Very Impressive that was extra fast I've changed them that way a few times myself and seen other people do it but never that fast you got it down too a science you sure know what your doing like someone else said on here most shops can't do it that fast even with all their fancy equipment.
