Stage 51 gives us the rear left wheel.

The bead on the outer half rim of the wheel is deeper than the bead on the inner.  You'll need to get the tyre the right way round so it sits properly in the rims.

This is the thinner bead on the tyre.

This is the thicker bead that goes on the outside of the wheel.

Soak the tyre in hot water for a few minutes to soften it (minding your fingers!) then fit the tyre rims.  They are screwed together with 3 screws.

The instructions say to fit the wheel now, but it will only need to be removed later, so I shall leave mine off.  If you do this, keep the washer, screw and hub cap safely.

This completes the stage.
