I used to have a blacksmithshop and got into a heated argument with the neighbors, a tire company, about parking cars in my driveway. The owner had just put a rim on one of those tire machines. He looked at me and with his bare hands he pushed the tire in one go around the rim to intimidate me.

I pushed him aside and with my bare hands I did the second part.
I have never seen bigger eyes.

You were in their shop, the owner of the company was changing a tire, and you showed him you could do that too?
My eyes would have been big when he shoved the tire on the rim.
Then you shove the other side, which isn't tapered and radiused as is the first side, on the rim,, now I'm pulling an eyelid muscle and getting eyeball juice on my glasses..

Motorcycle tires are a bit different. Especially the rear tires. Waaay stiffer. But the rope trick looks like a Possible. If I can save the $30.00ish dollars with a piece of rope,,mehh, I'll give it a shot.
