  4. Well, my bud wheels seem to be a little easier to dismount the tires and mount them. I’ve never done them, but I watched a lot of guys change them and it doesn’t take them very long at all. But yes, I do prefer spokes
  5. lol yes spoke wheels . I’ve done 1 million of them. my old company really didn’t want us doing anything to the trucks. Our average road calls were 2 to 3 hours but we also got paid to sit there. I want to say between 1000 and 1200 bucks to come out I don’t know for sure I never even saw the bills. They were just direct bill the company. I did see a loves Bill one time that was right there at the shop. I think it was close to 1000 bucks. I don’t know about any of your other guys but been in loves twice and Winnemucca, Nevada right in front of their door and it was a three hour delay. I’ve never seen anybody works so slow.
