Possible?
What tools would be needed?
Would it be worthwhile to do it myself rather than take it to a shop?
I'd need a balance after I'm assuming.

 

Are we talking tires? Why do they need to be remounted? I wouldn't mount a tire myself. I have, and it sucks. Most shops will mount and balance a tire for less than $25, Wal-Mart will do it for $10/tire. Etc. Tire irons can gouge the steel belt and rubber on the tire lip...

 

yeah, unless you have access to a bead breaker, changing tires can be a real pain in the a**. and since you need to get them balanced anyways i would just bring them in and have it done. it would also be a very good idea to replace the valve stems too while your at it. i think fleet farm advertizes free mounting and balancing with purchase of their tires once in a while as a sales promo. I'd rather give fleet farm my money than walmart anyways.

 

Should need a bead breaker, usually a solid hammer or person jumping on the bead will break it. Unless you have steel wheels, tire irons are likely to damage the wheels.

I unmounted and remounted a snow tires to swap a damaged rims and it was a 2 man job. You also need an air compressor to pop the bead into the rim.

 

well, if it is $10 a tire then I'll definitely take it to wal-mart and have it done. I probably need a couple new tires soon and wanted to know if I could realistically do it myself. Guess not, thanks.
