A mount and demount head configured as a housing affixed to a shaft of an OEM tire machine with a semicircular shaped shaft affixed to the housing. The shaft has a bulbous protrusion on a bottom end of the shaft with specific tapers. The shaft and the bulbous end have a flattened portion for following the contour of the rim. On the upper side of the bulbous end is the narrow semicircular shaft with a tapered top end, tapered to a widened shaft, which is affixed to the housing. A non-metallic insert is preferably inserted into a void in the flattened portion of the narrow semicircular shaft and bulbous end to protect the rim surface. Clamp adapters are used to clamp and hold small wheel assemblies whereby the clamp adapters are inserted over the OEM clamps to extend the clamp capability of the OEM tire machine.
