Mounting Small Trailer Tires by Hand: A learning experience

My small “work” boat trailer was needing new tires and when one finally separated from the rim it was the only option I had. I bought two Carlisle USA Trail for the main tire and a Carlisle Sport Trail for a spare. These were 4.8-8 tires so pretty small trailer tires. I didn’t have much trouble getting the old tires off but getting the new ones on was a different story. I got the spare on a rim but I was worried I may have damaged the tire in the process. I decided I’d take to remaining tires to the tire shop since I didn’t want to damage any more. As it would have it the tire shop couldn’t do it since the rims were too small for their tire machine and the mower repair shop I took it to next would try to do it by hand for $10 dollars a piece. I didn’t want to pay someone to do it the same way I did it so I gave it another shot. Thanks to a little electrical tape and I different approach the remaining tire went on fairly easily and I learned a lot in the process.
