Changing Tires on Wheels???

What are you guy's thoughts on changing tires on your rims??? I'm more so interested in the risk involve in changing out the tires, what are you guy's past experience with this?

My Kuhmo Ecsta 712 = Not much better then stock Potenzas, especially if I plan on going FI.

^^ Ya, I was seriously considering those... but I need something to also get me through the last month or so of winter and no one really seems to know if I could survive on some snow or ice with them. Sucks...

Changing tires on the wheels is fine. Just get the right size.

What tire you get depends on what you want. If you're going F/I you might want a high performance summer tire.

If you need some grip in the elements, Al, you should consider the tires that I have, as well as EddNog, Basilisk4, and plenty others: The Avon Tech M550 Ultra-High Performance All-Seasons.
