I watched all the videos of how to do this at home when I put a new rear tire on my XMAX recently, and realized I’d be paying more for all the stuff than just taking the tire and wheel down to my local dealer . They charged me $45 for the change… I was literally in and out of the dealership in 30 minutes. I was very satisfied with that. They mounted it, balanced it and cleaned the entire wheel with wheel cleaner.

Great Video! Thank You. If my tire replacements were fewer and further between...........probably would go the dealer route.
The logistics got to be a hassle........Take the wheel off..........drop it off. If they were busy.......they didn't drop what they were
doing .....so the half hour wait wasn't working out. Drive home and wait for the call..........by then the traffic was awful. Nah.....
D I Y works for me.
