A tire changer machine having a wheel lift mechanism (100) including a lifting structure (102) adapted to rest generally flush with a floor surface in a lowered position. The wheel lift mechanism is coupled for linear movement with a wheel supporting spindle assembly (202) and driven by a linearly-actuating cylinder (112) coupled to a linkage assembly (104). Extension of the linearly-actuating cylinder operates the linkage assembly to elevate the lifting structure towards a wheel mount location on the wheel supporting spindle assembly while maintaining the lifting structure in a generally horizontal orientation.
