Where can I take a flat tire for a snow thrower to fix it?
I don't want to take my snow thrower into a Sears to fix it again. Last year, I had the same issue and they had it for 2 weeks. This would not be a big deal in March or April, but this is January in an area where it's known to snow quite a bit. Is it possible to take those kind of tires into local shops? Will I have to remove the tire myself? I'm not exactly the most handy person, but if it's easy I'd give it a shot.
I should add the tire is off the rim. It was stable last month and was able to use it 3 times with no problems. In fact, I checked the tire to avoid this issue.

Pick up a local telephone book and look for a small engine repair shop. These are the people who fix lawn mowers and garden tractors. They should be able to repair a flat tire.
Next year, get your snow blower serviced and ready to go BEFORE it snows...

Just how scrawny are you.? Ask a friend to help you....practice this. In your spare time, on a flat piece of land or concrete, get set up to practice. Put some wood blocks in front of the wheels, and behind the wheels of the wheels you are not taking off. Put your car in park and lock the emergency brake. Remember to put blocks on the wheels, front and back of them. Now practice jacking up the car, with the jack in the right place, which is usually under the frame in special made places. Usually there are drawings on how to do this on the trunk of the car, near the spare tire. Turn the jack until it starts raising the car. Before you get the car wheel in the air, loosen the lug nuts on all the nuts. If you can't turn the handle of the lug wrench, get a pipe about 18 inches long, that will fit over the end of the wrench, and use it as a lever, it will give you more power. Only loosen them so that they are not real tight, but don't spin them more then one turn each. Now jack the car up some more. Once the wheel turns freely, in the air, remove the tire, completely. Then put the wheel back on, and you will see how difficult it is and you will be prepared for it when and if it happens. The spare will be the same, so you won't need to get it out. But you should look at it and see how you do get it out, it might be clamped down. Look at it and remember, so when you need it, you will not have to figure it out again. Tighten the lug nuts pretty tight, with it in the air, tighten all lug nuts. The wheel will move while you are tightening them, but do your best to get them as tight as you can. Once you get them as tight as you can, you can lower the car. Lower the car just a little bit, so that the tire touches the ground but the whole weight not on it, and snug them up as tight as the wrench will let you. Lower the car and remove the jack, and you are done. Now, take it and have someone else tighten up the nuts even more, or use the pipe you used if you did, and tighten them up. They need to be really tight. Keep the pipe in your trunk. Now, If you are on the road and have a flat, you just do the same as you practiced. Hopefully, you will not have to do this, and hopefully you might have someone around to help you. Chances are that if you get a flat, the ground will not be level, or hard, it might even be muddy. So be prepared for that. Find rocks to put under the wheels to keep them from rolling while you work on it. And if the ground is too bad, move the car to flatter spot. But you should know how, just in case you are stranded somewhere and cannot get help. Say maybe your phone don't work, or no one is with you, it is cold and you need to get on the road. Do it, fix your flat and get moving. No, it is not easy, but it can save you from walking. Most car wheels today are small, the cars are small, so it isn't too bad. Unless you drive a big huge 4 x 4 truck. Then you need lots of help. One other thing. If you ever find yourself in a situation where you cannot fix the tire and you are alone, no help, it is cold and getting dark. Drive on the darn flat.!!!! It will be slow, it will ruin the tire and maybe damage the wheel, but it will get you out of there. Better to be in a safe place with a damaged tire then to sit out in the middle of nowhere. If you do decide to practice, please have someone with you, to help. Okay? You should try to do it yourself, but have someone there in case you need them. Be safe. Good luck.

I work in a local tire shop and fix those all the time. We prefer that you just bring the tire in, but if you can't get it off than just take the whole thing there. We work on pretty much any tire out there from snow blower tires to giant tires.

Scrawny or not you aren't always going to be in a place where help is readily available if you get a flat and you can't call the police and ask for assistance. You either need to get AAA or the number for the courtesy patrol in your area, they are typically a part of the county sheriff department and are there specifically to help motorists with things like this. However if a cop sees a stranded motorist and they are not on call they are required to stop and render assistance if its needed.

Typically any local small engine and snow thrower dealer will be able to assist you will repairing the tire to your unit.
You can try a local Briggs & Stratton dealer in your area.

You can easily plug the hole with a tire plug kit you buy at the auto parts store or buy an inner tube that fits your tire and slide it into the tire after lifting one tire bead off the rim. Any auto repair shop can do either job for you easily.
