Advice on ATV Tires
Just wanted to get someone's opinion. I have a new set of ATV tires sitting in the garage. I would really like to get em on at minimal cost. Of course I have to somehow manually break the bead on the old tires mounted on the steel rim, then get the new ones over and get a new bead. Does anyone have any advice or particular tools you can suggest, or am I better off paying about $60 bucks and just taking it to a tire shop. This day and age just trying to save a few bucks where I can! Curious to see if it can be done without tons of backbreaking, knucklebusting work!

1: Carry it to a tire shop or ATV dealer who has the RIGHT tools to do it with. Pay them and smile.
OR,
2: Carry it to a tire dealer who beats them off and live with ugly bent scratched wheels from now on....
OR,
3: Do it yourself and do # 1 above after you try....
