Default BVM Tires

HI all, after 3 seasons of bad landings on my Hotspot, I decided to change the tire slicks, pretty worn, so I did a search on RCU to see how others where doing it and confirmed my beliefs that it was not going to be easy.
I took the best ideas,which where, use hot water to soften the tires. Second ,find some Dubin( silicone). Third, find an old spinner the same size as the tire and lastly,get a piece of wood with a hole in it.
Well, it took me longer to heat the water, a few seconds and the tires where on, great, that was so easy, now I just got to get those small screws in.
