Regrets on the poor iPhone photos.

Might be a good idea to spray them with Armour All before you mount em !

I checked with Discount Tire (where I bought the tires) and they now have a machine that will not touch the lip with the bar that circulates the wheel as it pushes the tire down. Just the same, is the Armor All you're referring to one used for detailing or something else?

Light coats seem to be the way to go. It really helps to keep them clean especially if you clean the pan of the wheel, crap just wipes off.

Good luck gonz.

Tires mounted - 1 more day until she's out of the shop - can't wait.

Regrets on the iPhone pictures as my camera is in Amsterdam at the moment (daughter).
