Now, on the other hand, to MOUNT your new tires on your existing wheels is another story with these big tires. It's much more a MANUAL and hard labor proposition, as there's no 'tire mount' machine generally found there - it's a hands on process, but they know what they're doing.

I don't know what tire changing machines you've seen but manufacturers like Coats, Nationwide, Atlas and Aston have machines that easily handle diameters up to 50" so a standard Class C, a Class A 19.5" or 22" wheels should be no problem except for lifting it on and off the machine.
