it would proly take me a while, def not going in business with this shit...but it saves me $40 and i can fawk around and change things as i please.

basically i can take a tire off proly in 20 mins if it goes well, i think i could have one back on in under 30.

2-3 hours i suppose to do 4...

but you have to remember i am EXTREMELY slow in terms of mechanics, it took me 30 hours to change the radiator in my civic. im not in business, i do this for fun.
