Roadbuck Launches Full Line of Rim-Safe Tire Changers to Solve Workshop Pain Points

For auto repair shop owners, the most frustrating moments during tire changes and repairs are often: stubborn tires that won’t release from the chuck, scratched or damaged rims, and struggling with EV and run-flat tires that are too stiff to demount.

Several years ago, we conducted market research across Chinese cities. The data showed that 8 out of 10 workshops still use old-style jaw-chuck tire changers. These rely on clamping the rim with hard jaws, which frequently cause rim scratches. Repairs can cost anywhere from a few hundred to tens of thousands of yuan, wiping out a day’s profits in an instant.

To solve these persistent pain points, we have developed a complete line of rim-safe tire changers, featuring a center-shaft locking mechanism and lever-free design. This eliminates the root causes of rim damage and ensures no harm to TPMS sensors during service.

We have tailored solutions for every type of workshop based on size and business focus:

Small community shops & quick lube centers: For limited budgets, the standard model V7110 is ideal. It takes just 5 minutes to learn, reduces rim damage claims, and pays for itself in 2-3 months through savings.
Mid-sized workshops & JD Tuhu partner stores: High volumes of EV and run-flat tires call for the upgraded V9120. With dual helper arms and a backward-tilting column, it cuts 3 minutes off each tire service, allowing shops to take on 10 more vehicles per day.
Luxury car specialists & large tire shops: High volumes of tire work and modified large-diameter rims demand the premium V9220. It handles rims from 12" to 28" with ease, including low-profile tires like those on the BMW 3 Series, enabling shops to charge a premium for specialized services.
4S stores, supercar specialists & tuning garages: For standardized, zero-damage service, the flagship V9850 is the top choice. It supports rims up to 34" with fully automated operation, making it perfect for supercar and performance wheel modifications.

At Roadbuck, we believe one simple truth: Equipment is not a cost, it is a profit-generating tool for your shop. If you want to reduce customer complaints, improve bay efficiency, and earn more from high-end vehicles, choosing a lever-free, rim-safe tire changer is an investment you won’t regret
