Rotating tires... Anyone use a tire lift?

[Flgator]

So I just rotated all my tires and practically threw out my back. Them are some heavy wheels. I saw some little hydraulic tire lifts on rollers to assist. Anyone have any experience using them and if positive ... any recommended ones?

I just jack it up enough to roll the tire back on. You need to do some core exercises bro.

I’m way too fat and out of shape for core exercises

I had surgery a couple of weeks ago and am not supposed to lift anything much for another month. I have a long road trip coming up in a week. And I'm already way overdue at 10k. So I went to Discount Tire, where I've been buying tires for forty years, expecting to pay a bit to have them do it. They did it for free. Works for me.

I do my own. The tire/wheel assembly weighs 100lbs, so it isn’t easy when simply jacked up in your driveway. I usually sit in front of the tire and use my feet/legs to help lift the tire up onto the lugs.

I bribe the neighbor kids with food to do it. No joke.

A long pry bar underneath can help a lot to move the wheel around.

^That's the right way when putting on tires especially truck tires.

I just lift enough so I can snatch the wheel onto the studs. Ya those wheels are heavy mofos.

When I was swapping wheels in the spring, I asked some Jehovah Witnesses that we’re passing my place to help me lol
