A semi-automatic tire changer specifically designed for industry professionals, Tire Works model Teco 28TI/UPH/BPS/PO, will be auctioned off on eBay Motors November 1–10, 2010, with proceeds going to SEMA Cares.

The tire changer, donated by SICE USA/Teco Automotive Equipment, is a large-capacity 28-inch machine with a unique patented multiposition bead breaker.

Also included will be a complement of cosmetic wheel protection items for the clamping jaws and the bead breaker. The unit, which has a suggested user price of approximately $10,500 and was shipped direct from Italy, will be on display at the 2010 SEMA Show in Las Vegas.
