Features
One Column, Two Tools on the Changer
The FTC-T2's hook head and pressing roller ride the same column and move together on a single plane, so demount and mount happen without switching tools or repositioning. The design was built specifically around run-flat and low-profile tires.
Hydraulic Hook Head Control
Full hydraulic operation holds the hook head steady, with none of the rebound of pneumatic machines, and clearance from the rim adjusts freely in real time. That is what keeps the head off the wheel on expensive alloys.
6,614 lb Bead Breaker with Helper Arm and Lifter
Hand-controlled bead breaking at 6,614 lb and 10 bar handles seized beads on run-flats, with a pad protecting the rim. The left helper arm presses beads into the drop center and a pedal-controlled lifter raises wheels onto the center axle.
3D Millimeter Wave Radar Data Entry
The FWB-8833 measures distance, width, and diameter automatically: pull the measuring ruler, lower the wheel guard, and the radar captures the parameters. No manual input for standard wheels.
Laser-Guided Weight Placement
A laser pinpoints the exact weight location on the rim, and one-button smart positioning rotates the wheel to the balance point and locks it. No spinning the wheel by hand hunting for 12 o'clock.
Eight Balance Modes Including ALU-S
DYN for standard dynamic balancing, static mode for motorcycle wheels, ALU-1 through ALU-5 for alloy configurations, and ALU-S for hiding weights behind 3 to 12 spokes on custom wheels.
Mechanical Keyboard and IPS Display
Physical keys instead of a touch screen mean no lag and no accidental touches with wet or gloved hands, backed by an IPS display running a real-time operating system. A dual-channel air cooling system with a modular layout keeps the electronics cool and easy to clean.
Best For & Vehicle Compatibility
Fit depends on your vehicles and your shop. Contact us with the year, make, and model, or your shop details, and we'll confirm compatibility before you order.
Performance and Luxury Tire Shops
The changer's leverless hydraulic design keeps tools off alloy rims, and the balancer's ALU-S mode hides weights behind spokes on custom wheels. Both machines are built around protecting expensive wheels while keeping service fast.
High-Volume Tire Service
Radar data entry removes the measuring step on the balancer, the integrated column removes tool changes on the tire changer, and one-button positioning removes the hunt for the weight point. The saved seconds compound across a day of wheels.
New Shop Startups
One order covers complete wheel service, and both machines run on single phase power, so no three phase buildout is required. The balancer operates under 45 dB.

Installation Requirements
FTC-T2 Tire Changer
220V / 60 Hz single phase with a 25A circuit breaker, fuse, and ground wire, plus 116-145 PSI (8-10 bar) compressed air. Set it on a solid floor with access to power and air; it can be anchored to the floor to reduce noise.
FWB-8833 Wheel Balancer
110V or 220V / 50-60 Hz single phase on a standard grounded outlet. Mount it on flat, solid concrete, since an uneven or unstable floor affects measurement accuracy, and leave clearance around the machine for operation.

Call (855) 498-2147Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in the combo?
The FTC-T2 leverless center post tire changer with helper arm and tire lifter, plus the FWB-8833 3D wheel balancer with wheel guard. Both machines ship complete with their accessories.
What electrical service do I need?
The tire changer requires 220V / 60 Hz single phase with a 25A breaker. The balancer runs on 110V or 220V / 50-60 Hz single phase. Neither machine needs three phase service.
Is the tire changer good for run-flat tires?
Yes. The FTC-T2's leverless design and hydraulic control were built for run-flat and low-profile tires, with adjustable hook head clearance that keeps the head off the rim.
How does the 3D radar work?
Millimeter wave radar automatically measures the distance to the rim and the rim width when you lower the wheel guard. Combined with the measuring ruler for diameter, no manual data entry is needed.
What balance modes does the FWB-8833 have?
DYN (standard), static (motorcycle), ALU-1 through ALU-5 for various alloy wheel configurations, and ALU-S for hiding weights behind spokes (3 to 12 spokes).
Does the balancer need shop air?
No, the FWB-8833 is electric only. Only the FTC-T2 tire changer requires compressed air, at 116-145 PSI (8-10 bar).
