i don't think that would throw it off that much and they are easily had for cheap.

Can you use one of these? http://www.legacygarage.com/images/Pictures/Tools/15-16%20crows%20foot.JPG

Willing to ship it?

Good luck, i've been semi-looking myself and most people are selling them for $250 or more used.

Microcenter sells the 16gb for $279, Apple sells the refurb 16gb for $249

LS swap + turbo.

I've seen it done before, the after cleanup really isn't that bad. They do their training then re-light it to burn it out as much as possible.

Donate it to the fire department for training? They'll light it, put it out and you get the deduction?

The difference there is, some people want to EARN their living while others want to be HANDED their living. I can respect the earners. It is a two sided coin, but sometimes the people demanding higher wages force the hand of those who's job it is to lower costs. If I was told I had to take a pay cut or my job could be outsourced, I'd have to consider the paycut. Unfortunately many would just claim it was the man trying to earn more and let the job go to Mexico.

Americans are losing jobs to outsourcing because many today expect to be paid a wage not commensurate with their willingness to work. I don't care if you have 94856948564 college degrees, you don't "deserve" a position as CEO as soon as you graduate. THIS ^

Got em balanced for $20, all mounted up and ready to go! http://imageshack.us/scaled/medium/593/36et.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/medium/19/xo2q.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/medium/585/tme2.jpg

Not that's what i'm talking about.

Maybe, but disposable income at that level is hard to come by anymore. THANKS OBAMA!

Snow should be measured in feet, not flurries.

I just find it funny it popped up on my local CL.

This ^ Many of the HF tools are a good entry point if you have the time and patience to upgrade them as needed. For me, the welder simply wasn't worth it. I got it to weld up an exhaust on my old beater since no shop would touch it (no cat converter) without adding a full exhaust and cat converter. No way would I pay $500+ for that on a car that I literally paid $50 for. After I welded up the exhaust, I promptly sold that welder and never looked back.

The link in the OP covers that. As long as you break the bead off the wheel all the way around, they should come off. It should be somewhat easy but you might need to persuade them with a prybar or big screwdriver. It might not be as easy to get the bead to stay in the relief with the tire coming off as it is going on.

I'm supposed to be taking it easy, just got my aircast off monday. http://imageshack.us/scaled/medium/203/tno5.jpg Tore up my achillies tendon pretty bad.

I've read about the balance beads and such, thought about it but decided not to bother. I may still buy some weights and the balancer just because, but for the cost I'm hoping to pay $10 to get em all balanced. We'll see though. Yeah, most people don't realize that is what the recess is the rim for and I honestly knew but didn't realize they would go on THAT easy without tools. I feel somewhat ripped off for all the tires I've paid to have mounted in the past. Yes, I am THAT CHEAP.

First off, no pics. Sorry.... With that said, I was just sitting here being a bit bored, googling trying to find a tire shop open on Sunday to get my Jeep tires mounted and balanced. After reading this thread and letting my boredom get the best of me I thought, well I better at least go clean out my truck and get the tires and wheels loaded up for tomorrow and get them done. Now typically people around here want to charge between $40 and $100 for a simple mount and balance on four tires. They charge more if they have to remove them from the vehicle and even more if they have to remove a tire from the wheel and replace it with another. Lucky for me, my wheels are bare and the tires are fresh off a Jeep Rubicon with maybe 50 miles on it so all I need to do is combine the two! I go out to the garage, grab a wheel and it hit me. I remember as a kid helping my friends dad "walk on" a HUGE tractor tire. This thing was like 6 foot in diameter so he had me stand in one spot while he walked his way around the tire until it popped on the wheel. With the wheel still in my hand I decided what the hell, I'll try and mount one just to see if I can. I set the wheel down face up on a old piece of plywood, put in a new valve stem and soaped up the bead area of the tire. Now, as long as you get the tire into the mounting grove as seen in the center of this wheel it should go right on. http://p.globalsources.com/IMAGES/PDT/B1060201486/Truck-Wheel-Rims.jpg You typically don't need tools, well at least with decent sized tires that have enough sidewall. So sure enough, the bottom bead went on easy as pie and the top bead nearly as easy as long as you make sure you get the bead into that grove on the wheel. Just work the bead around the wheel pressing down till the tire pops on. Hit them with air until the bead pops, then fill to the proper pressure. I went ahead and mounted all four, aired them up and tossed them into the back of the truck. Now I'm half tempted to buy the Harbor Freight bubble balancer just to try my luck there too! I've neveer had tires just balanced before so I'm hoping I can find a shop that will do that for like $10 or so since they won't have to do much of anything except put them on the machine and stick on a bit of weight. If it weren't for the cost of the balancer and weights, I'd probably just do that myself too. I just don't expect to get enough use out of the balancer and weights to justify the cost against the maybe $10-20 I hope to pay for a simple balance. /flame suit on for being cheap /waits for the "so what" and rest of the flaming posts typical of CR (I'll continue to pat myself on the back for doing the work myself though, so 0 fucks given. This was more for those curious as to if it's possible and what it may take.)

No, I had one and it wouldn't feed for shit. You'd have to crank up the tension to the point it would nearly break the feed wheels and still would slip. Pay the extra and get a used decent brand from craigslist if cost is a concern.
