mounting tires

[Honda TRX250ex]

my parts just came into today. i orderd razr 20 inch for rears and front rims and other crap thats made me lose some cash.

my question is how hard is it to get the front tires that is on my quad right now and mount them up to the new rims.
same thing for rears.

any tips?



thanks



BTW if worse comes to worse ill bring them to auto class in school and have them mounted up there.

Do that, it will be easier in the long run. Look at john's post on the hipers, I said there how much trouble I had getting the front tires mounted to the rims. My best sugestion is to get someone who has done this before.


The tires need to be pryed onto the rims with a tire iron, crow bar, or big screw driver. Then put soap, wd-40, etc on the bead, and take a ratchet strap and wrap that around the tire and start cranking down on it. That will help to get the bead set.
