Thanks You'll need some kit. I bought the below stuff in 2016. The wheel guards, meh, I quit using them after the second time, but if you are concerned about a scratch or two, you might want to use them. For me, I can't emphasize enough that the tires be hot, thus easier to change. Some people can do it when their cold, but I will throw tools if it doesn't do what it's designed to do Link to comment

wbw6cos Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Mike, that pays for itself in the long run. Richard, I wondered if you left that tire out in the sun to prepare. Link to comment
