Ok, thanks. I may purchase one of those cheetah tanks to quickly inflate the tire and seat the bead. How do you guys feel about camso Brand Tires? I may go for the sks 753 tires.
Mounting tires can go pretty good. You may need a way to break beads either a big hammer or a high lift jack and chain works. As for tire irons you should have 2 preferably drop center ones. Use a lot of lube and take little bites. Make sure if you have different bead depths you work from the shorter side.
ok, thank you. I was originally looking for another "power king" tire. But, I spoke with them and they discontinued the particular "new" tire that I have. So, it will always be an odd ball. So, I will just get 4 new ones and I am leaning towards the Camso SKS 753. There are not a whole lot of reviews on skid steer tires out there. I am surprised by that. But, of the limited reviews I could find, it seems this brand of tire is pretty stout. I will start getting the tire irons off the internet and most likely a Cheetah. Otherwise, I am looking at $200 to mount the 4 tires at a local shop. That will just about cover the tools and then I will be prepared for any flats, mishaps or the next set of new tires.
i put the SKS 753s on my bobcat. best tires i have ever owned. snow traction is awesome. not sure it its cold where you live. they are self cleaning too which is nice. i actually bought them on EBAY for just under 1100 shipped on brand new rims, so i have 4 spares. i thought it was a great deal since they were 200 a peice installed.
I purchased the Camso 753 tires and the tools to break them down and install them. I am very pleased with the traction. The machine is much more usable now.
