Excellent wheels! For tyres like these, and their size, the sandwich method works best. For smaller wheels the coiling method is more suitable. In any case, I admire the preparational work you put in to first make a prototype and then move on to the real work. Must be taking a lot of time! But the learning part is something you wouldn't want to miss out on

Thanks a lot for comments, RifleMan, Mike and Erik.
Yes, Erik, it takes longer. But I enjoy the process a lot. Trial&Errors and learnings. It makes me forget all those stresses (from work and life) and just focus on one thing. Somehow… at least for me … good for mental health A little progress today 2x front, 2x rear and 1x spare ![]() ![]() ![]() |
