A tire handling tool used to assist a worker in positioning a tire from the horizontal or lying position to a vertical position. The tire handling tool generally including a first member connected to a second member, the second member defines a spacing, and further includes at least one stop. The second member includes a first end attached to the first member and a second end having a first bracket with wheels. The first member defines a second end that includes a second bracket having a roller member. A tubular member is attached to the first member and passes through the spacing of the second member. Urging the tool in a forward direction causes the tubular member to travel along the spacing towards the first bracket for receiving a tire that is in the lying position, and then urging the first member in a backward direction lifts the tire to a vertical position.

1. A tire handling tool comprising: a first member, and a second member connected to the first member via a connector that extends perpendicularly through the first member, the second member defines first and second legs that are positioned in parallel relation and define a spacing therebetween, wherein said spacing extends the approximate length of said second member, and further includes at least one stop that is adjustable along the length of the second member,a first end of the second member is pivotally connected to the first member, anda second end of the second member opposite the second member's first end includes a first bracket with at least one wheel,said first member defines a first end and a second end opposite said first member's first end,a second bracket having a roller member is attached to the second end of the first member,a tubular member, wherein a first end of the tubular member is attached to the first end of the first member and a second end of the tubular member is attached to the second end of the first member, and wherein said tubular member passes through said spacing of the second member between the stop and the first bracket,wherein urging the tubular member in a forward direction causes the tubular member to travel along said spacing in a first direction towards said first bracket and places the tire handling tool in a position for receiving a tire that is in the horizontal or lying position, andwherein urging the first member in a backward direction causes the tubular member to travel along said spacing in a second direction opposite said first direction causing the first bracket to raise, upwardly lifting the tire to a vertical position. 2. The tire handling tool as recited in claim 1, wherein the second bracket includes an adjustment hinge that positions the second bracket in communication with the tire when urging the first member. 3. The tire handling tool as recited in claim 2, further includes a link member defined by a plurality of links, said link member having a first end attached to the first member, and a second end releasably attached to the second member in order to restrict separation of the first member from the second member. 4. The tire handling tool as recited in claim 3, wherein said second member includes an extension that defines a slot for receipt of one of the selected links in the link member. 5. The tire handling tool as recited in claim 1, wherein the first member further includes telescoping means for extending or shortening the length of the first member. 6. The tire handling tool as recited in claim 1, wherein said first bracket defines a first angle of about 90 degrees for receiving a portion of the tire's tread surface. 7. The tire handling tool as recited in claim 1, wherein said second bracket defines a second angle of about 90 degrees for receiving a portion of the tire's tread surface. 8. The fire handling tool as recited in claim 1, wherein the first and second ends of the tubular member are integral to the first member. 9. A tire handling tool comprising: a first member, a second member having a first end pivotally connected to said first member, and wherein said second member defines a spacing that extends the approximate length of said second member,said second member further including a second end that includes a first bracket,said first member defines a first end and a second end,a second bracket is connected to the second end of the first member,a tubular member having a first end and second end, wherein the first end of the tubular member is attached to the first end of the first member and the second end of the tubular member is attached to the second end of the first member such that the tubular member passes through said spacing,wherein urging the tubular member in a forward direction causes the tubular member to travel along said spacing in a first direction towards said first bracket placing the tire handling to in a position for receiving a tire that is in the lying position, andurging the first member in a backward direction causes the tubular member to travel along said spacing in a second direction opposite said first direction raising the first bracket and lifting the tire to a vertical position,at least one stop that is adjustably positioned along the length of the second member, andwherein said tubular member passes through said spacing and is disposed between the stop and the first bracket. 10. The tire handling tool as recited in claim 9, wherein the second bracket includes an adjustment hinge that positions the second bracket in communication with the tire when urging the first member. 11. The tire handling tool as recited in claim 9, further includes a link member defined by a plurality of links, said link member having a first end attached to the first member, and a second end releasably attached to the second member in order to restrict separation of the first member from the second member. 12. The tire handling tool as recited in claim 11, wherein said second member includes an extension that defines a slot for receipt of one of the selected links in the link member. 13. The tire handling tool as recited in claim 9, wherein the first member further includes telescoping means for extending or shortening the length of the first member. 14. The tire handling tool as recited in claim 9, wherein said first bracket defines a first angle of about 90 degrees for receiving a portion of the tire's tread surface, and said second bracket defines a second angle of about 90 degrees for receiving a portion of the tire's tread surface. 15. A tire handling tool comprising: a first member,a second member having a first end pivotally connected to said first member,wherein said second member defines a spacing having a length,said second member further includes a second end that includes a first bracket,said first member defines a first end and a second end,a second bracket is hinged to the second end of the first member,a first end of a tubular member is affixed to the first end of the first member and a second end of the tubular member is affixed to the second end of the first member such that the tubular member passes through said spacing,wherein urging the tubular member in a forward direction causes the tubular member to travel along said length of said spacing in a first direction towards said first bracket placing the tire handling tool in a position for receiving a tire that is in the lying position, and urging the first member in a backward direction causes the tubular member to travel along said spacing in a second direction opposite said first direction raising the first bracket and lifting the tire to a vertical position,at least one stop that is adjustably positioned along the length of the second member, andwherein said tubular member is disposed between the stop and the first bracket. 16. The tire handling tool as recited in claim 15, wherein said first bracket defines a first angle of about 90 degrees for receiving a portion of the tire's tread surface, and said second bracket defines a second angle of about 90 degrees for receiving a portion of the tire's tread surface.
