[QUOTE="chinglespeed, post: 40981, member: 636"] :blah: warning. Changing tires is kind of like riding a bicycle up a hill. At first, you're thinking, "Man, this hill sucks." But you ride the same hill twenty, or a hundred times, and something strange happens. You find yourself thinking, "I kind of like this hill, and I can kick its ass, too." It's a beautiful thing when you come over that crest with [I]Rein in Blood[/I] or some s*** cranked on the headphones, and you're accelerating out the top where you used to pull over to puke. so uhh you see what i mean. Changing out rubber is an enjoyable part of the ritual. You get to spend quality time with your sled. It's all positive 'cause there's nothing better than new tires, or just having pressure in your tire where there was none. My buddies complain about the swap but slapping on that paddle tire makes me grin like an imbecile. :ride: MRP made the stand I use, welded up right here in the states.
