Good morning fellas
Been trying to get in contact with a guy on Craigslist for some 35s for the Comanche...
Have been calling him for 2 days and texting him and the only response I've gotten is "yes, I got the tires"....

You really want to know? You have to have a set of "spoons". But it can be done.

Use your XJ. Take the schrader valve completely out of the valve stem. Then lay that tire flat down and drive your XJ up onto the side of the tire to "pop" the bead loose.

I've used a treated 2x6 or 2x8 and put it as close to the rim as you could get it then drive up on it. I'm a pro at changing tires man. I learned changing four wheeler tires then jeep tires. Lol

I have a piece of 2x6 steel about 30" long...I can use that to push down and I'll buy the spoon/tire removal tool from harbor freight

What do you guys recommend ? Soap and water? To remove the rim from the tire?
