I dunno. I think you should put that 21 on the rear just to start a new trend. No, seriously, that would look sweet!!!!

Hahaha. Sorry. Just got back from Tuesday Happy Hour.

I needed to wax em up and polish them before I put them on. Its so much easier to take care of them the right way before you mount them. I'll get on it asap man!

Trust me, I was chomping at the bit the second I got them, but I know how important it is to get a few coats of wax on them when they are new, make cleaning them soooo much easier going forward. Hopefully tonight I can get them on. Gotta work today man.

You don't look so good. I think you should take a sick day and stay home to heal up

Thumbs up

I don't need any special thanks. I do a bang up job on everyone's tire. I'm gonna copy these pics to my computer if you don't mind. Those wheels...WOW.

Now I just got to get them on the damn bike. Give me a couple of days boys and she should be rolling on her new rubber. Heres a couple of quick pix after I cleaned them up.

By the way, Tab at DB Tires did a bang up job on my 21. She looks n feels like a beauty. Even better than the Metzeler that came with the whitewall from the factory. Thx Tab!

Help yourself Tab. I have a very good friend of mine who will be taking some pro shots of the sled in a week or two. Those pics will def. be much better.

As far as the wheels go guys. I am excersizing some patience and just ordered a set of new brake pads for the bike. I may as well put some new pads on since I am putting new rotors on. I'll have her up n running on the new rubber by Friday night.

UPDATE:

Good news first. Front Tire is on and rolling smoothly. Looks bad@ss all the way.

Not so good news, but not that bad either; The rear spacer is off by 1/4 inch. Greg is overnighting me a new one which will hopefully get here on Monday. I guess it could be worse, so Im not complaining. I think he is just as anxious as I am to see these wheels in action.

Man that 21 fits tight as hell in that front fender, barely any room under that front lip. You guys have the same fitment with your 21's???
