Thanks. The only thing keeping me from doing this myself is pulling the tires off the rim. I tired it once - what a PITA. It was WELL worth the $15 I spent to have them mounted!!! Maybe the tire guy will pop 'em off for me...let me 'fix' the rims...then bring 'em back and he can pop the tires back on...

I flipped my rims over yesterday to make sure I want to do this. Man, those calipers are pretty exposed. Those of you who are running this setup - do you have any issues with your front calipers hitting stuff?

My tire shop is going to install shorter valve stems for me tomorrow. So I can easily put them back to 'normal' if I don't like the exposure or the ride, etc.

Sweet... Then I can't wait to get the valve stems replaced today!!!! Plus, since this is the 'least intrusive' method, I can always flip them back w/ no problems. Just pull 'em off and flip 'em back over!

Stay tuned...I'll get some pics up too!
