I can verify that this procedure works with other model Cessnas also.


and piper wheels.


1. I remove the valve core (deflate the tire)

2. I place the wheel flat on the cement hangar floor under the wing of
my 182.

3. I hang onto the wing strut to keep from falling over

4. I place my feet radially outward from the center of the wheel such
that my heels are together right at the wheel rim.

5. My 205 lbs is usually enough to force the tire bead downward off
the rim. Sometimes, I have to alternate putting all my weight first
on one heel and then the other.

6. Turn the wheel over and do the other side.

7. Remove the bolts holding the wheel halves together.
