I just got done changing mine. Used a Cycle Hill machine and Marc Parnes balancer. He had to make a set of cones to match the new front wheels on the Spyder, but as soon as I pull the rear and report back to him it should be good to go.
I static balanced and am using the Centramatics. Pulling the rear to mount the last one. This RTL should be smooth as glass after that.
Vredestein 175/55R15 fronts, 205/60R15 rear. All wrangled on by hand.

Never met a tool I did not like.
I have been accused of operating the Spyder shop for the sole purpose of buying tools.....

Another vote for the NoMar tire changer and balancer. They are some of the best tools I have ever bought!

Be glad they shipped you one with a wheel clamp that actually worked. One of the worst companies I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with.

I buy a 6 pack and have a buddy with a tire machine and balancer. I provide moral support and enjoy a beverage with him. I call his shop, my other garage.

For me changing the tires is easy it's pulling off the rear wheel that i can't do.
