[Tigers] Tire changes

[Smit, Theo]

Most modern tire machines will be capable of mounting and dismounting tires
without actually touching the outside lip of the wheel. It does also depend on
the skill of the operator... if you go to a shop that can do the current crop
of low profile tires and 18 to 20" wheels then they shouldn't have any problem
with the Silverstones and /60 or /70 aspect ratio tires.
