    I have accumulated more first-hand failure experience now than 40 years ago, and have a better idea what to watch for.

    Not shy to admit, my main issue is lifting tires back on. I've adapted: have the wheel "just" clear, no more than an inch. Roll the wheel/tire up, as close as practical, and oriented to suit studs. Tuck my toes under the wheel (around 4:30 and 7:30) and lift, while guiding onto the studs with my hands.
