no chrome homie, my rims are white like yours. talkin bikes here. i acknowledged the custom aspect/benefit-but like i said, are they better? ive never lost a weight-tire change dont take long, and i been goin to the same place for awhile, sometimes i hang out and watch em work, but i never had a prob. even if i gotta take my own weights off(i dont) so they dont scratch em up when they take em off at the tire shop, or just not have them balance my tire, buy beads, then go home and let all the air out, pour beads into it, and air it back up to get the same performance-id just take the fuckin weights off myself. that takes 2mins.
thats why my question is are they better. its a great idea if they work, gman says they do, but if its just for aesthetic aspects, thats perfectly fine, but not worth the extra hassle they would cause me.
never spun a tire on a streetbike-on my racebike whenever i get a new tire mounted, it moves about a 1/8" after the 1st launch, then never again
