no, but we will be offering local fellow racers $10 each for mounting and balancing race rubber once we get comfortable doing our own first...

..but we are NOT doing street tires (staying far away from that scene)

That's pretty freaking cool! But your going to have a hell of a time getting them out of the truck. They are def. not light. Prolly take, what, at least 4 guys?

dismounted a hoosier (275 40 17) off a 17x9 rim last night.... so 1st test completed and the balancer just has to be calibrated before it can be used with a steel wheel and then we are good to go! Its going to be a busy tire mount/balance weekend for us!
