Kid Karts 9/21 and Tires

Post by Bob Newhouse » Thu Sep 18, 2008 7:53 pm

I'm hoping to see everyone out and that everyone's recovering from Ike.

Our plan is to get GT back out for his first race in months this weekend--it's been too long.

Question: Anyone have a good technique/tool for mounting tires? I have a jig to hold the wheel and can get a tire off, but for the life of me cannot get a tire on! :x

Mounting the tire back on the rim is usually easier than getting it off... :lol: Spray the tire and rim with simple green and start from the back of the rim, should slide right on :!:
