Default Tire switch

My new Holeshots get in tomorrow and i was wondering if most you guy bring your wheels in to get the rubber replaces or do you put the new rubber on your rims your self?
If you do it your self what tools do you use and are there any tricks to doing it?

Putting them on the rims isn't the hard part, it's breaking the old tires off the bead that will **** you off. If you trust your tire shop not to bend your rims and you can stand there and watch them do it, just pay to have it done.

you can get a small bead breaker
worth it if you have multiple rides or sets of tires
