Tire Ramp

Has anybody tried a Tire Ramp to change RV tires on trailer or 5ft wheel

  • I have one and it is great, does take up a lot of space used it twice for a flat and roll the good tire on it after loosening the lug nuts and off came the wheel and spare was put on. took about a 1/2 hr. tst tire minder caught the leaky torn sidewall and pulled over and was still partially aired up.
    ps. I have the all aluminum one and my boys plastic one did not go high enough to get the tire off the ground. I just picked up an aluminum one at a garage sale for him.
  • Have not. Some have stated that some types suspension have so much travel the ramp will not raise the other wheel enough to change it.

    Just one more thing to carry and take up space, feel a 12 Ton Bottle jack is smaller and more useful.
