 Tyre tread - Bigtee
What does a tyre machine do? Make tyres out of old bits of rubber? Cut new treads in a bald tyre?

Or do you just mean it is easier to use than a pair of tyre levers?

It's a manual tyre changer does upto 16" rims inc 4x4 tyres but not runflats unless your strong with 4x pairs of hands.!!

I have had it years and it owes me nothing i have all the gear for it inc the bar for the alloy wheels as not to scratch the rims & glue and plug patches etc.

Also have tyre bars to do them manaully but no need with machine.

It works off compressed air and you can use it with a 25ltr compressor id say minimum this one is 150ltrs for my other air tools.

Ideal if the family have a few cars & i was getting a spate of punctures so saved a few quid.
