After a long stressful day due the insurance company accidentally canceling my old policy instead of taken my old vehicle off and putting a hold on it. They had to make a new one last second so I could get my whip!! It’s amazing!!

Ha! I had the same thought and tried it earlier without much luck. I was 90 minutes into the process without anything to show for it. Starting to get frustrated, and decided to walk away for the time. I’ll snag my old man at some point this weekend and have him hold a couple screwdrivers around the rim as I try to stretch it on there. I’ve got plenty to keep me busy, and I learned the hard way to walk away when I start to get frustrated. I’ve made some stupid mistakes just from being mentally fatigued.

I can imagine a tool for this process and I’ll have to check if it exists. It seems like you could have a tapered ring that temporary bolts to the wheel and allows the tire to be pushed straight down into place. Even if you had to just go around the rim with a mallet tapping it down in circles, I feel like it would work. It would have to come apart into 3 or 4 pieces to fit through the tire in the first place. But it would make this process much easier
I may be able to run by tomorrow and lend a hand (or two) if needed 👍🏻

For those of you who have them now, how do they drive? how's the gearing, ride quality, etc?
Coming from a 2 door sport with 6MT, 35s, and 3.45 gears. It’s freaking amazing. It drives better than it has any right to. Haven’t really had a chance to “give it the beans” (that’s for all the Donut fans) as it’s still in break in period. But I’m very happy
