I'll relate a problem a couple of friends had while changing a tire on a Coates machine. When they broke the bead on one side, they didn't pay enough attention to the wheel placement and put pressure on the edge of the front brake disc when breaking the bead bending the disc slightly- enough that it was very evident on the "test" ride.
