Sure, if your shop specializes in tiny British roadsters with 13 inch wheels, then it’s probably no big deal to lug a set of tires around your garage.
But for anything larger than that, you probably know how much of a literal pain it can be to load and unload tires in a busy work bay—and that’s doubly true if they’re mounted on a nice set of wheels.
Enter JohnDow Industries and its lineup of Tire Taxis.
Tire Taxis let you safely move tires and wheel/tire combos around the shop without fear of toppling them over. They’re super durable—plenty tough enough for a professional shop—yet light enough to easily maneuver around a cluttered concrete floor in a home garage. And when you’re not using it, you can simply hang it on a rack or slide it under a workbench. Better still, you can use a Tire Taxi to roll around other bulky, heavy cargo too.
JohnDow Industries makes its Tire Taxis in a handful of flavors:
- The original Tire Taxis feature beefy casters that’ll easily hold up to 265 pounds—well suited for most passenger cars and light-duty trucks.
- If you’ve got a commercial truck or an 4×4 off-roader running oversized tires, then check out a Heavy-Duty Tire Taxi that’ll hold well over 500 pounds.
- A John Dow Extended Tire Taxi adds a handy riser base that brings the tire up higher off the ground, so you’re doing a heck of a lot less bending and straining if the vehicle is on a lift.
