Interesting service manual step

In 1962 if the tech writer was an "older" man in his 50s or 60s then he would have remembered the old days when tires were removable on the car. My grandpa used to tell me how juvenile delinquent boys would steal the rubber tires from seemingly abandoned cars in them days by slightly tipping the car to get the tire off the ground while another boy would get the tire off the wheel.
