What tire sizes can it handle?

It takes tires from 1.5 to 18 in wide and wheels up to 39.37 in in diameter. That covers most passenger cars, SUVs and light trucks, but not motorcycle or heavy commercial wheels.

Does it balance wheels as well as change tires?

Yes. The machine is listed as both a tire changer and a wheel balancer, so one unit does both jobs. Balancing results depend on correct setup and calibration.

Does it need air from a compressor?

The changer is driven by its 2HP electric motor. This model does not list air-assist or a bead blaster, so you do not need a large compressor for the core functions.

How much space and floor strength do I need?

The packed unit is 46 x 34 x 23 in and weighs 513 lbs gross. Plan for a concrete floor and enough clearance to swing wheels around the machine.

Is it worth it over a changer-only machine?

It is worth considering if you want mounting and balancing from one unit and work mostly on car and light truck wheels. If you need air-assist, bead blasting or high-volume speed, a dedicated professional changer is the better fit.

What comes in the box?

The package contains the tire changer and balancer machine with its motor. Check the listing for included mounting hardware, clamps and accessories before you buy.
