Bought this one some time last year. Used it a couple times. Takes some getting used to, but works ok.

Would prefer a motorized version like the big boys at the tire shop, but this'll do.

Same thing, just from Northern Tool;

Best thing about it is having some way to hold that little tire so your hands are free to work the irons.

I pay the shop down the street 5 bucks a piece to mount mine and they can even do it without scratching my freshly painted wheels.

I got one. Had it for 2 years. Still in the box. Guess I better get it mounted. Still using two screwdrivers, not sure why.

I've got one......
It's nice. But I mount front tires by hand. They're small and easy. Rears are too, but I don't have to bend over when they are on the tire machine.

I got one from Princess Auto a couple years ago, and I use it alot, a spray bottle of soap/water helps make for an easy job.

I need to drive to 2 towns away to get a tire changed.....I value the cost of my car by the amount of gas I have in it, and right now I don't have much in it

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
