Before:





After:









I'm also doing a write-up for the braindead (such as me) who don't know a dang thing about how to do this. Altogether it took me about 2.5 hours to do.

These Michelins have only 7,000 miles. As soon as they wear down I'll be out of college and shopping for some HD wheels
