Several ways to do that. Best is what is easiest for you. I tried it with the long spoons,wound up with a plasma leak right butween the Eyes..
I just haul the wheel and the new tire, tube,rim liner, and have someone else do it. Or buy stuff from them, any or all.

Have you tried the
Technical and Documents
Section?

There are people here who know how to make the forum reveal its secrets.
I'm not one of them.
I've seen some good ideas, there is a way to use zip ties,
Have you searched YouTube? Tons of problem solving genius to be found there and motorcycle tire changes has to a topic.

pro tip, leave the tire out on the driveway on a hot sunny day for a few hours before trying to put it on.

Or just heat the inside surface with a heat gun or even a hair dryer.

That's not a rocket science at all, simply loose your lug nut, uplift the vehicle, find your tools, exchange the tire and tighten up lug nut again....that's it Smiley

Need not to panic anymore, just pull your vehicle up, hold some tools, loosen the wheel nuts, exchange the tire with a new one and fix the nuts again....That's it not a rocket science at all Smiley
