    How much of a pain is it? Should I just save myself some grief and find a shop that can do that? Thanks, I have new Kendo steer tires ready to go.

    I plan to take mine to my friend/mechanic and he'll swap both rears for $10.

    At that price, it's not worth my hassle.

    BTW.. any pics of the boots/sneakers?
    :binoculars:

    Just got some Kenda Bearclaws myself.

    It'll be a huge improvement on traction.

    Yup, same tires I just picked up. My existing fronts are as worn as your rears, doesn't do much good in snow. Luckily, my rears are good (I have 4 of them- Polaris 6x6).
    Now, to get them on....
