The BeadBuster XB-455 is identical in design to our original XB-450 bead breaker, the difference is it is sourced from Taiwan, and is intended as our wholesale model for distributors, retailers, and dealers. The quality of this tool is exceptional, we have worked diligently with our manufacturing partner in Taiwan to maintain strict quality control, to ensure a final product that will deliver years of reliable use. With the home mechanic and trail rider in mind, it was specifically designed for difficult-to-remove ATV tires, but we soon realized that it worked just as well on just about every kind of tire there is. No adjustment is needed for different tire/wheel sizes. It is small, portable, and perfect for stashing in your glove box or tool box. A 3/4 wrench is required to drive the clamp and ram bolts. Hand wrenches will work, power tools are recommended. You can use an impact wrench, but use caution with a 1/2 impact to not over-torque the bolts. Tire Irons are required to finish the job of removing the tire from the rim. The XB-450 will NOT work on ATV wheels that have a reinforcing ring (aka rock ring), such as Kawasaki KFX OEM wheels, and certain aftermarket Baja racing wheels. For Reinforced Rims, you need the XB-451 or XB-454 PRO. Certain cast aluminum and alloy passenger vehicle rims and large agricultural rims have a profile that prevents the tool from clamping properly (see illustration). See the specifications above; if in doubt, measure your rims and compare to the tools spec. For Automotive wheels with curved/angled surfaces, an XB-451 or XB-454 PRO with the optional Long Clamp Arm is needed for proper clamping with those problematic wheels. The BeadBuster 45X series was designed for use on the most common Diameters of ATV/UTV Rims: 9 and larger. Smaller rims (7 & 8) have a different and shallower lip profile. Use on these rims may cause damage to the ram foot as the feet can catch on the bead retainer. However, the tool can be effectively used on these smaller rims with a spacer (BB1-SPCR) that we sell. Its a small magnetic pad that effectively shortens the feet for small rims. Bent Lever Motorsports is a performance shop dedicated to providing the greatest experience for anything two wheels.
