Full-size vs. mini Tire Changer

[Ramper]

I want to buy a HF tire changer. I will use it for lawn tractor and atv tires. I do not see EVER changing a full size tire. The issue I am having is the mini unit is more than the full-size unit and I can not seem to find coupons for the mini.

How many do you change? Many can be done by hand using a couple screwdrivers and a dash of soap.

Not very many 10/year. Maybe just some tire spoons and elbow grease

Atv and even golf cart tires we just use a few screwdrivers,tire spoons and prybars with tire paste

And only use machine for full size maybe your tractor tires

Look at some youtube videos on the ( harbor freight mini tire changer )
It looks like it would make it a lot easer for the small tires.
you could use a 20% off coupon and save a little $$

I used the full size HF on my lawn tractor tires, 20x10x10 worked great. It was also handy on the smaller front ones to break bead. Can't go wrong for $30.00

For 10 a year, I would buy the HF mini-changer. With a coupon it would be about $35.
