If someone can elighten me on how to do it myself, or recomend a place, that would be great.

[daytona 2]

[dirtybomb]

D-bomb. I use Sava's and I'm suuuper pleased with them. Fitting them is a piece of cake if you have the right tools (two good tyre levers). I swapped a tyre in 10 min at a race meet once

Slicks are the main tyre used for racing but you can get (grooved) wets Savas for twice the price... wear fast but on a wet day they hold on like a slick on a warm day.... you can also get china made wets but they dont handle any better then the slicks in the wet and wear twice as fast lol

You would be alright old fella.....
They used to have them at daytona indoor raceway... Heaps of fun, scrapping elbows and knees, so close to the ground it hurts less when you come off lol
