I just got my new holeshots in the mail today. I'm glad I went with these ones and can't wait until I get them on.

How do you guys break the bead on the old tires? I tried putting a board on em and driving up it with my car. When I did that I took the valve stem out so the air went out of that. Should I try that again with the valve stem in or just bring em to walmart?

i have always done it with the car tire and board and it has always worked fine for me. maybe get a buddy to jump on the tire to help it off the bead.

It was my brother driving the car and I was standing on the tire. I think my problem was my air was going out of the valve stem, I'm not sure though. I'll probably just take them to walmart. Their website says it costs 5$ a tire.
