[QUOTE="fjrmoho, post: 1221174, member: 88040"] The michelins are the easiest I've done on my nomar. Continentals were by far the hardest. When I was starting out, I really struggled with the last little bit of the rear. I was using the lube in the right spots, but I found the tire would rotate no matter how tight. I used a bar inside the spokes (wrapped in lots of rags of course) to stop it rotating. But things got easier when I really paid attention to the bead placement. Both top and bottom beads must be tucked into the right spots all around. I also have both the yellow and grey tools above. Those are a must. Once I got the technique down, even the Conti's were easy. [/QUOTE]
