Coats APX90 Electric Rim Clamp Tire Changer

The Tire Changer Platform for the Future

Wheels are getting larger, heavier and more expensive. New tire systems are becoming tougher to change. Today, tire service is more challenging than it’s ever been—and choosing the right equipment to serve your customers is even more critical.

The APX90 was designed to change the toughest run flats and extra-large custom wheels with ease—including Michelin PAX (with optional accessory kit). Without strenuous effort and without damage to expensive custom wheels. Not only are these tough jobs made easy, but the APX90 makes quick and efficient work of conventional tires and wheels. The Coats APX90 provides a path to increased shop efficiency and profitability, enabling you to service virtually any job that comes in your shop.

The APX90 can handle nearly any application, with the ability to service wheels from 9" to 30" externally and without the need for additional adapters. At the same time it provides an ergonomic user experience with intuitive and easy to operate features, so that you can focus on changing tires without complicated training issues. Capacity, Productivity, and Protection—the Coats APX90 delivers on all counts.

Protecting Expensive Wheels

When your customers entrust you with their expensive wheels, you need a tire changer that you can count on to do the job safely and without worry. With features such as the Coats® exclusive bead loosening system, the APX90 was designed from the ground up to give peace of mind for even the most challenging jobs.

Increasing Shop Productivity

As tires and wheels get larger and heavier, they also get harder to change. With features such as an integrated wheel lift and more power helpers than any other tire changer, the Coats APX90 helps your staff work faster and more efficiently. And because the Coats APX90 has evolved from the most popular family of tire changers in the United States, it is intuitive and easy to operate. Technicians can focus on the customer rather than complex training.
