How do you change riding lawn mower tires?

-doozer-

My tires are worn badly so I plan to order new ones. How do I get my new ones on the rim? What's the best technique?
I know this is the wrong section. I couldn't get an answer in other sections. I'm trying to get the actual tire on the rim. The back wheels.

Answer
hammer a couple big screwdrivers pry off front side most of time after you pop the tire bead on both side you pry off with two scewdrivers soapy water helps... and really a tire shop would do it for 10 to 20 bucks... only hard part will be getting the tires bead to pop down after that you should have a problem

Answer
Doozier I take wheels off and use long flat blade screwdriver to remove tires. When installing your new tire, buy small ratchet strap wrench. Put the strap wrench around center of tire and tighten up, you will need to do this to get tire to take air, release strap wrench after tire starts taking air. I put link at bottom, for you to see ratchet strap wrench. You can buy cheap one at Walmart or dollar store.
