    I know many of you work/have worked in tire shops. I am currently hunting for a new tire machine for our shop. Currently do all tire repairs and mounting with slide hammer bead breaker and bars; its time to upgrade.

    Hoping to find a machine that can handle up to a 24.5” wheel.

    Any and all suggestions on brands/models to get or to stay away from is greatly appreciated.

    Any certain model of coats? Not looking for balancer. Still a fan of old school bubble balancer for farm pickups.
