ABSTRACT:
A wheel lifting device for facilitating removal of a flat tire and positioning of a replacement tire includes a base bar being positionable on a support surface adjacent a tire. Each of a pair of arms is coupled to the base bar. Each of the arms has one of a pair of rollers rotatably coupled thereto. Each of the rollers is positioned between the arms to engage a tread of the tire. The rollers permit rotation of the tire to allow a rim to be rotated to properly align the rim with a wheel hub.
