How long does it take to change a tire
The time required to change a tire varies depending on a number of factors. Here is an approximate time required to change a tire in different scenarios under normal circumstances:
Change your own tire
Experienced owner: If you are an experienced and skilled owner, have all the tools to change a tire, and your vehicle is in good condition, it will take about 15-30 minutes to change a tire, provided that the tire is not specially fastened or rusted. If you want to change four tires, it may take about 1-2 hours, but this also depends on factors such as the type of vehicle and the size of the tires. For example, the tires of a small car are relatively easy to change, while the tires of a large SUV or pickup truck may be heavier and more difficult to operate, and it will take a little longer.
New owner: For a novice who does not have much experience, it may take more time to familiarize yourself with the operation process and use of tools. Changing a tire may take 30 minutes to 1 hour or even longer, and changing four tires may take 2-4 hours, and the time may be further extended due to unfamiliarity or some minor problems.
Go to a repair shop or tire shop to change tires
General situation: In professional repair shops or tire shops, the staff are usually more skilled and the equipment is more complete. If you just change the tires and do not involve other complicated issues, it may only take 10-20 minutes to change a tire, and it usually takes about 1 hour to change four tires. However, if you encounter special situations such as rusty tire bolts and deformed wheel hubs, it may increase the difficulty of disassembly and installation, and the time will be extended to 1.5-2 hours or even longer.
Peak hours or busy business: If it is during the peak business hours of the repair shop or tire shop, you may need to wait in line, plus the time to change the tire, the overall time will increase significantly, and it may take 2-3 hours or even longer to complete the tire change.
As the number of vehicles such as cars continues to rise, the demand for tire replacement and maintenance has increased sharply. The traditional manual tire removal is inefficient and difficult to meet the urgent market demand for rapid repairs. At the same time, manual tire removal has a high risk and is prone to safety accidents. The tire changer can effectively reduce safety hazards with standardized operating procedures and complete protective devices. In addition, in order to avoid damage to tires and rims caused by manual tire removal and extend their service life, the advantages of precise and uniform force application of tire changers make them an ideal choice in the market.
