So far so good, the only person that's scratched one of my rims is me.

Yep, I just got off my lazy ass and bought the tools at Harbor Freight to do my tires.

Wheel balancer $59

Tire bar $5.99

Bead breaker $19.99

I'm considering getting the wheel stand from HF for $49 and I need to buy the plastic inserts to prevent scratches after I get my rims repainted but otherwise I'm good to go. My bike is under warranty until Nov 2010 so I'll just take it elsewhere if I need major service.
