Title: Tire retrieval tool

Abstract: A tire retrieval tool for retrieving a tire disposed in an otherwise inaccessible or difficult to reach receptacle, such as a tire well of a station wagon automobile, comprises a pair of arms joined at an elbow for applying torque to the rim of the wheel on which the tire is mounted. The arms comprise a contact member for contacting the wheel within the receptacle and a handle member for controlling and exerting force upon the contact arm. A brace attached to the arms engages the tire during retrieval thereof to prevent loss of contact between the contact member and the wheel. The handle member and the contact member are joined at an acute angle and may have different lengths to provide a mechanical advantage for facilitating retrieval of the tire from the receptacle.
