    Lol I had to laugh when I read your post.. I didn't notice the bike mount on backwards. Wheels are definitely too small.. 16s?

    Hey, nothing wrong with 15s. When you need new tires, you only spend a few hundred for the set as opposed to a couple hundred per tire. Everyone will work on them also as opposed to some shops that wont dismount lower profile tires and/or charge extra (a lot of those shops around here).

    Need to add new tail lights to your to-do list. Skipping right to air wont make up for everything else.

    you need to say f*** those shops, and go to one with better equipment, or stop wrapping rubber bands around your wheels with s***ty sprays .
