Default Mounting tires on 3" solid tailwheels

I use baby powder, smells funny but is a lot cheaper and your wife
probably has some in the closet.

I change the tires on my Harley with tire irons and have considered
using a couple of C-clamps to mount tail wheels.Â* Instead, I bought a
brass split wheel for my Stemme since I needed some weight in the tail
(rather than giving up beer).

Tire talc makes it much easier:
