They used one hell of a bead blaster to get that seated. I use to work at Hopkins Firestone, when we did lowrider tires, it was a pita. I can't imagine getting that seated too easily.

Yeah, typically, alot of the stretched tire shops that mount over in europe use fluid and fire. Pretty neat how they do. Pretty scarry tho too.
