Two rear tyres on a Bentley today, in work. A customer turned up later on with a triumph stag v8. :)

on my machine (semi automatic) you set the head about 15mm away from the rim but when you remove or fit a tyre, the force of the tyre pulls the head close to the rim as it all flexes. Gotta be really careful.

Yep, It's a PITA.

I never bothered using the head/foot when refitting tyres. And only ever used a metal head when removing, as the plastic/nylon ones flexed far too much.
