LCTX Portable Car Tire Changer vs Maisutseb 22.5" Truck Tire Changer
These are not rivals for the same job. The LCTX is a manual, portable changer for passenger-car wheels from 12 to 21 inches, and it needs an air compressor to work. The Maisutseb is a 110V electric machine built for R22.5 truck tires, with a 4 kW motor and a 4-times-per-minute rotation. Buy the LCTX for car and light-truck wheels at home or roadside; buy the Maisutseb only if you service 22.5-inch truck tires and have a power supply with a leakage protector.
- Choose the LCTX if you change passenger-car or light-truck tires yourself and want a portable steel unit that stores away and needs no power outlet.
- Choose the Maisutseb if you work on R22.5 truck tires and want a powered machine that does the heavy pulling for you.
