I hope so or another epic internet thread has been born. However if this is serious, actually it can't be, can it?  |

Phil, you're drunk, go home.  Having seen, first hand, Phil change the timing belt on a Lotus 907 twin cam in a matter of minutes, I know this is a wind-up. Dude, I hope you're hangover isn't too bad this morning? What have Hardcore and Colon been making you drink this time? |

Pish, that's quitting talk.
Put the tyres in the oven until they go really, really soft (gas mark 6, 20 minutes per lb, plus 20 minutes), then mold them around the rim... Remember to wear oven gloves too.

Remember to wear oven gloves too. Also, get those rims in the deep freeze, to shrink them down a bit too. This will also help take out any buckles they may have; a la Skyway BMX mags from the 'eighties. Joe |

Stammer Rape ftw. What about cutting the tyre in a spiral around the diameter of it, then wrapping round the wheel and gluing it on with that stuff they use to stick CV boots together.

Erm, dunno what's going on here.. Suggestions of RRRRape seem likely; I can confirm Phil to not be someone that would ask such a question. RRRRLocked |
