Hi Jim, how's that steamy Florida Weather goin mate? I just was interested how you mentioned you "tooled up" to change your own tyres and was interested what tools you used and how hard it was to do your own. It seems every time I get my tyres changed I've had dramas. The first time the 15 yr old boy scratched my front rims and 2 other times my speedo cable has been broken by the mechanic turning the front axle and stressing the cable. The first and even the second time I watched it happen but the last time the cable didn't brake immediately but after 15,000k.

So now I'm thinking if it wasn't that hard I'd rather do it myself. In the long term I'd have a lot less grief I think.
