Re: Re[2]: [ST] RE: Front Wheel Removal



I bought 2 sets (4 pieces) of "Rim Protectors" from Ironpony in Columbus 
Ohio.  www.ironpony.com for about 4 dollars per pair.  They work 
fabulously. Snap  on...stay in place...thin and tough. I have use all 
sorts of homemade protector and nothing comes close to these...
