Shouldn't require a cheetah or the use of flames. Shop I go to does it the standard way.

Maybe it was the shop or shape of the wheel, but there was like 1/2 exposed barrel on both sides with a grip of psi... I don't know lol

Yeah most likely the shop. I've been to some where they needed a cheetah to fit on a 225/35 on a 10.5. I got a 235/30 to fit on by another shop without an issue using normal methods.

Nankangs? I remember us talking about this before- was gonna get an Achilles tire and try- I have a 275/30 nankang on now but it's too short compare to the front for my taste. Achilles a larger tire than nankang?

Are these real questions? I go to a ghetto 'Mexican' tire shop down the street by my house and they easily mount tires that don't fit onto my wheels without hesitation and without all of those weird blowing-shlt up methods for stretching.

They even mounted a 245/35 on an 11. IDK what's up with these other wheel shops.

If these ghetto guys can do it, the more expensive shops should do it.
