I worked at a tire shop and a guy brought in some super low pro tires. The manager told us to do them, even though our policy said not to. We finally got them mounted, but the beads would not seat. The manager got involved in the work at that point and the pressure went to 80 psi. Still no change. Lube didn't matter. The manager then asked us to leave the work area and took the pressure to 100 psi, mounted the wheels, then bounced the car on the ground with the lift. The tires finally seated at 110 psi. Crazy.
Used on of these before at the Toyota dealer I used to work at. And a Coats 9028E Tire Changer. This machine works ok. The Coats was my favorite though, the 3rd arm makes more complicated tires easier for me. My grip is the foot pedal is inverse of what the Coats is for the table spinning direction. 1st tire I did on this machine I spun the tire the wrong way and the bead chomped on a Tire sensor.
I'd like to see how that head holds up to silly aftermarket wheels with raised spokes. Those raised spokes would SMOKE that hook. Also curious on how it performs on low profile 12 ply tires. If I'm spending this kind of money on a machine, I need to know it can stand up to the extremely high effort tasks.
This is like buying a Ferrari when you really just need a daily driver , neat machine , but I'll stick to a rim clamp with a single power assist , this really overcomplicating things afaic
@@jarredwoods1448 lol nah our old machine the table smoked out a couple weeks back so we are doing trial runs on this machine to see if we can find flaws in it we got a couple of 30in and two 28in pairs we got to mount 3pc wheels of course

I wish they showed how to mount low profile tires 🙄
the last demonstration was a very low profile tire? what's low is low to you?
