If they do trailer tyres they remove the tyre of the rim which is still attached. This way they don’t need to wait to re torque the nuts.

That's a nice glass
Aye, I will say the quality is not the same as it used to be. The first ones I got were real heavy cut glass. The ones I got recently felt different and the presentation box looked low ball.

Yes that's the norm, super singles I could stack them six high lol
Break the bead on the outer rim, take off the outside of the tyre & slide underneath
with a sledgy & break the back bead & spray with wd40 put the leaver in from the
back pull to the outside slip the other leaver in & pull the tyre off...
soap the new tyre bead lift onto the top of the wheel & give it a good boot..(tyre on)
soap the outer bead 3/4s use left knee to push the tyre into the wheel work the leaver
round to fit the rest last bit may require a whack with sledgy.
If your good this can be done in less than 90 seconds

Yer only need to meet the spec of +/-2mm to make engine parts fer big Freelander's so yer should be ok....that the lathe of despair rumbles on.
Here it is with the newly-painted back panel re-fitted and with a new wedge-style quick-change post fitted.
I have attempted to remove the backlash on the cross-slide and I am down from 20 thou' to 4 thou' so I need to try harder I know.
Allegedly, some tool-holders to match will turn up tomorrow, which would be nice and then I might be able to turn a custom "backlash removal" washer.
Chinese-lathe haters may now (of course) form an orderly queue and apply their hoots of derision as they see fit.
I am reconciled to the fact that it is a "Toy" and that I am merely dabbling in machining, so I will not be all that offended.

Yer can't purra bandidge on a poorly tire. Plasters only.Bit of hard luck that but if it's bad tomorrow don't look for a hospital try the local Countryside/animal businesses and get some cohesive bandage like they use on horses
If the tyre is looking iffy then make sure you phone for the service bloke at a very early hour! He'll then learn to do a better job first time round.
Sleep well.
