Curated by The Field Editor · Updated June 2026
Built for farm owners and hobbyists reviving mid-century tractors who need to mount large tires without damaging the rim or getting stuck mid-process. Not for high-volume commercial tire shops—this shop focuses on manual, heavy-duty field repairs.
Curator's pick: Heavy Duty Tire Spoons
Most people go too short on the handle; you need the full 30-inch leverage to move vintage sidewalls without shredding the bead. These have a thin enough tip to get behind the rim flange but won't bend when you're leaning your full weight on them.
⚠ Worth knowing: If the rim has severe rust pitting or scale inside the bead seat, no amount of lubricant or new tubes will prevent a slow leak. You must mechanical-clean or sand-blast that seat to bare metal before attempting to mount or the seal will fail within a season.
