A major pain in the butt.
You need some special stuff.
A big hammer, a bar to remove the tire from the rim, and a lot of muscle !
If you can find a custom wheel house that mounts wheels I would try it
before I went to all the trouble.

Hello all,

How hard is it to mount tires by hand?  Tire shops
do not seem to like messing with my bolt-on wire wheels
and inner tubes, and maybe I'll just do it myself...
