I guess this is one of those things, for me anyway, you have to justify. I'm no good at breaking tire beads by hand so the HF bead breaker and some good tire tools are a good investment for us. Dad used handle all the tire changing but is no longer physically able. Not counting passenger cars and pickups, the 2 of us have over 160 tires on operable pcs of machinery (yes I just counted them). They range from the little ones on the tow behind lawn sprayer to combine tires. Most of them I can change with the HF bead breaker with the exception of tractor rears, combine drive tires, and the ones on the 2 farm trucks. I work full time and "play" farmer in the evenings and on weekends, so being able to change a wagon tire at 7pm is a big deal to me.
