When I first saw the new tires bundled together I though they were a lot wider than the old ones. Just shows how much they change under pressure. If they did get away from you when you dropped them off the tailgate you may have gotten lucky and found one of your lost drones when searching for the runway tires. 😉

I got a pair of used tires for a 4X4 truck and swapped them onto the wheels using 2 tire irons in about 30 minutes. (30 years ago...) You can learn to do the mounting by hand with the minimum effort. The mechanical aids such as the Harbor Freight tire changers do help, but they aren't necessary. And you still need the tire irons with the Harbor Freight changer...

The worst tires to change, seem to be the front tires on a riding lawn mower. The worst for breaking the bead on an old tire was a 28 inch rear tractor tire. If I had a backhoe, the bottom of the bucket would make a good bead breaker 😎

The smaller the tire the harder they are to get on and off the rim. I struggled with my snow blower when I installed tubes in them. I believe they’re about the same diameter as a riding mower front tire. In the past my Dad broke the bead by driving his plow truck onto the tire. Never did anything as big as a tractor tire.

Back when I was a mechanic, we just cut the valve stem let the air out because we always replace the valve stem when we replace tires and number two we would take the valve Core out of the valve in order to inflate the tire to set the bead so that once the bead was set, we just disconnected the compressed air, let all the current air in escape, replace valve core and set pressure. Of course, with all these new modern tire sensors that wirelessly send information to your car computer to let you know with the pressure of your wheels are you might want to just stick with pulling the core to let the air out and leave the core out till after you set the bead and go from there. I noticed you didn’t balance your tires granted on the Quad It may not be quite as important, but still a very inexpensive tire balancer, which you could probably make, which consists of a stand with a Point at the top and a cone you put into the center hole of your rim and then, with the cone on the stand wheel on the cone, you let it sit free and see, which way it tips you then put weight opposite on the high side and try to level out the wheel to the ground. once you know how much weight it takes to balance it out, split in half and put 1/2 on the outside of the rim and 1/2 on the inside of the rim and then re-check the balance. It’s a really large amount of weight divided in four and then put half back down the arc on one side, from where the balance point was and the other half the opposite direction from the line where the balance point was. You might need a little more weight this way again have to wait outside have to wait inside but this will give you four points to help keep the wheel balanced in case one of the weights should break free. Your whole wheel won’t start going really wonky. Of course your barons might be kind of bad because your old tire wasn’t balanced, which is one of the consequences for not balancing a tire along with a not so smooth ride.

After I cut the grass at my local animal shelter I had a rear tire split in the sidewall due to age, dry rotting. The cost for replacement tires is crazy high now so I cut up an old intertube and patched the whole inside of the bad, split tire. I then used a new inner tube after the patching job dried in the sun. I was shocked my idea, plan worked. I had plenty of glue to affix the inner tube to the bad tire. Why you didn't just use a tube is beyond me.
