mach1 hp wheels at 64# rear and 62# front, I also had to come up with something. Plus the rollers let the wheel rotate for easy fit onto the studs.

That was my first thought but I couldn’t confirm how high it raised while the car was on jackstands

I'm reasonably young (42), and think both the jack and especially the wheel dolly is a great technique. The PP1 wheel/tire combo is about my limit for easily lifting into place to mount. I dread rotating the factory 22s on my wife's Tahoe...

It is a purchased unit. GoJAK professional model. Handles the wide HP wheels/tires. Zoom in on the pics to get all the info. I use it for wheel swaps to the RT660 from the Cup2’s plus just taking the wheel off for cleaning between track days.

Looks like you swap out while using the jack, will the dolly jack up high enough while the car is on jackstands. Those were my first choice but my tires are about 6” off the floor while on stands and I could never get a clear answer from any manufactures how high they go due to different tire sizes.

I’m not quite sure about the GoJAK going high enough while car is on jackstands. If I’m going to place car on stands, I remove the wheel as in the pics and jack car high enough to get stands under pinch weld rails. I know the car has to be raised from my photo to the stand height but don’t remember how much. I’m loading the car now into the hauler but could take a pic of GoJAK with it fully extended but rollers wide enough to support wheel. Or wait till next Tuesday when I unload it after track days ? I try to keep the wheel/tire as close to the floor as possible , just incase some dreadful unbalance phenomena occurs !!

At some point when you get time, don’t go out of your way. I’m liking what I did so far

I have the time, any time to help fellow car enthusiasts so no biggie. I did a trial run and the furthest the GoJAK will lift a mach1 HP wheel/tire is 3”. So the purple wheel skate won’t work for your process. I like what you did with the hyd. floor jack with your tire board. I might have to experiment with that.

Why not mount two wide tube rollers on the board for the wheel to set & spin on?

Funny you should mention those (I actually bought 2 of them) that idea was my second choice, a guy took a motorcycle scissor jack and mounted a board and attached those rollers then I thought I would attach the rollers to my board then I said screw it why make it so complicated. 🤦🏻‍♂️
