Tyre changer & wheel balancer

Xavier · 29th September 2020, 21:22

Greetings all, I hope you are all well and keeping safe and spending far to much time on YouTube and the like.

Recently I have been thinking of buying a manual tyre remover and wheel balancer, but after much reviewing on YouTube I have decided to go the full wallet stretching route of an air tyre remover and electronic balancer.

Having dealt with Twin Busch recently and being very impressed I am naturally drawn to their devices but wondered if anyone had already bit the bullet (or know of anyone) and purchased any similar equipment and therefore had any advice?

Many thanks and keep safe....and remember your not mad if you talk to yourself just if you loose the argument. Xavier

What about something like this......

A clean up and I would think they would be fine for any home workshop.

I have an ancient Harvey Frost tyre changer, but it is not up to (or should I say I'm not up to) doing anything bigger than a 16" wheel with it.

I often muse about having space to do more, but it is a problem at home with a single car garage, but I think having quality built used equipment is preferable to cheaply made new.
