Let me get this right, you so far have gotten 47,000 out of that front tire, and are now riding around w/ 2 different tires, 1 white, 1 black because you wanna squeeze a few more thousand miles out of the front, which you've already gotten 47,000 out of. Wow. There's a fine line between thrifty and tight wad, you may be crossing it my brother. Just sayin.
Oh yeah, could have saved a few bucks if I took the tire off myself, but the rear is an awful pain in the ***,

Haven't you guys heard the secret to keeping the WWW clean as well as the rims is to switch from the stock matalic brake shoes to a Kevlar type shoe. I've switched and rarely have to clean them now.
