If you stroke it more than twice; you're playing with it.

Took the wheels apart, polished and cad plated the spokes.Put on new tires. Got a Nomar tire changer for Christmas.Works well, for me ,don't have to wait for the tire shop to do them anymore. Only problem is, i'm doing all my friends tires now.
(Not really a problem- i don't mind)
