Classic/Antique Car Repair: tire change


Question
Hi Jack- Is it do-able to change tires on my 28 Ford myself.  They are stock 21" wheels.  I have tire irons and have changed
tubes before but never the whole tire.  Thank you for your advice.

Answer
Sure, we do it all the time.  It takes mussel and technique, I hope you have.  Warm the tire up before you try to install it.  I would not recommend the vietnam tires if you have a heavy car.  Get Firestone, or a major brand.   When you order the tires, order the rubber bands that protect the tube from the spokes.  We use a plastic garbage bag to make the tires slide on easier.  Just stick with it.  jack
