Is it normal for it to be a huge pain to mount a 35" tire on a 15" rim? I watched a few people do it on YouTube pretty efficiently but when I tried it it seemed impossible. At least without trashing the rim.
Lube is your friend, and the bigger your prying device the better. If you have a friend to help it makes it easier. Either way it sucks. I mounted 4 tires on my MJ as a teenager with two big flathead screwdrivers and a half gallon of Tide I stole from my mom lol. I did them one at a time by myself on the tailgate. Took me about 3 hours and sucked the life out of me but i did it. If i had to do it again i would just pay someone a few bucks and have them do it with a machine.
Believe me, the aggravation is worth spending the 30 bucks. Plus even if you mount them youll still have to pay to balance unless you use something like dynabeads (which i recommend on 35s regardless)
