And your neighbor's? Just kidding!!
Maybe! The only neighbor somewhat close to my house does wander over when he hears work going on. He’s never asked me for help, but he’s helped me out on a thing or two—just offers when he’s over.

km2's come with white letters! You'd just scuff them off on a boulder though!
lol…. I’ve about worn the KMC logo off of a few of the bead lock rings and a few of the tires I just replaced had scabs of the corded carcass showing on the sidewall. I would definitely destroy RWL’s

I haven't hid the fact I think the HF tire machine is a POS. But I've had one for years and mod as I go. I'm sure I've said this before drill holes 2 or 3 per wheel depending on the pattern,and bolt the wheel down with lugs. But the bead breaker usually doesn't work if the bead is stuck at all. You would be surprised how this little mod here helps the bead breaker work much better, keeps everything parallel and keeps it from twisting.
