Rob,

How much is a bit, and a lot? Do you have before and after photos? I face the prospect of fitting Michelins on 16 inch rims. Some folks in our neck of the woods just slapped them on and that was the end of it...other than trouble taking them off (I need examples of why you would do this), are there other pitfalls to mounting them up without carving?
