SP-LUBE-PINT Tire Mounting Paste - 1pt.

Did the job. Excess came off easily

Best tire lube for mounting tires. Better than soapy water.

I mount tires at home using a manual tire changer. Yeah, it's pretty primitive but it works fine for my old truck as well as my slightly-less-old Toyota, and I've saved a bunch through the years by doing it myself.I bought this paste when I bought the tire changer and used it every time I've mounted a tire (4 sets so far). In the past I've used the liquid-type tire lube that you apply with a dauber, but that was when I worked in a garage and had access to an actual tire machine. This stuff works almost as well, certainly well enough for my needs.I put some on a paper towel and wipe it onto the inner and outer beads of the tire. I have a tire bar with a ducks-head on it that will mount even a fairly stiff tire with very little effort. Not bad for doing it the old-fashioned way.I'd still love to have a pneumatic tire changer and if I ever get one I'll use the liquid tire lube. For now, this stuff is fine for me.

Bought to change out 4 motocross tires, always a pain. Worked great, tires slide on without a crazy wrestling match. Then I blew a trailer tire. So I bought a cheap Harbor Freight manual tire changer for 33 bucks, 2 tires from amazon and pulled out this lube. Nice coating on the bead and inside edge of each tire. One wheel I used the long spoon to mount the tire, the second tire I put on with just hands, boom just pushed in on. Unreal. I will never change a tire without this. Yes you can use soap, but this is way better. I paid $20, now its $30? Little steep

Tire lube is tire lube in most cases but this paste is so much better than other 5 star lubes that I decided to comment. First, it easily mixes with water for dismounting tires and, as a paste you can apply only where needed, easily avoiding bead contact surfaces where you don't want lube. It is as slippery as anything I've tried and, because you can control where it is applied to assist mounting tough beaded tires, it eases mounting and doesn't wander like liquids onto the bead surfaces that would potentially lead to tire/rim slip. A little goes a very long way and I expect this little jar will last 50 or more tire changes, which is many more than I'll survive. Exceptionally good product.

Pretty slick stuff. It's nasty and messy but seems to work better that soapy water.

I have been mounting my own motorcycle tires for 35 years. I have used a solution of dish soap and water or Murphys Oil Soap and water for bead lubrication. It took multiple inflation/deflation cycles to seat the beads sometimes with air pressure of 60 PSI. I have used No-Mar bead lubricant on 2 tires so far (Metzler Lasertec, tubeless tire, but used with tube on 84 BMW) and both tires seating on the first inflation at 40 PSI. This has NEVER happened before. Dumb me for not buying real tire mounting lubricant all these years.This is a MUST buy if you are mounting your own tires. I will also pack a film canister (if you are old enough to know what that is) full of No-Mar lubricant on the bike if by chance I have to fix a flat on the road

I use this all the time to mount 12" tubeless tires by hand. Just a little stays in place and helps the tire slip over the rim and then seal when seating with the compressor.
