Wow, you must do a lot more tire changes than I do to justify something like that.I must be nuts but have finally updated my old air assisted Coats tireman tire changing machine and also added an electronic tire balancer. I even bought a stud gun and studs for winter tires.
If it isn't done right I will only have myself to blame.
My mechanic had to replace his tire machine a few years ago, the old one didn't handle modern rims/low profile tires very well.
Over-torquing of lug nuts by tire shops/mechanics has been a peeve of mine ever since I got my first car.
I'll have to check that out, I have an antique car myself and ever since I replaced the leaf spring bushings they squeak. Lube 'em, they're OK for a while but it doesn't last.Yes Good stuff, works on squeaky rubber bushings /suspension parts to.
