Re: mounting tires
I've changed a lot of 17 inch tires for 33 - 34's by hand. Just lay them on the grass or a piece of carpet and have at it with a couple of tire irons. The hardest part is breaking the bead on the old old ones. That can be a challenge sometimes.
I never tried the plastic bag trick, next time I'll try that.
Some people use the spare tire holder as a work station - I never did that either, but it would save a little wear on the old knees.
