Rim Guards

[BWB63]

Where have you guys got good rim guards for changing your tires

without scratching your rims? I have always used a piece of garden

hose cut down the side but, mounting a Metzeler MC5 front with duel

rim locks and a Bridgestone Ultra heavy duty tube just didn't cut it.

What a fight and I still got a scratch on my gold excel rim ?(

The Bridgestone is soooooo thick and the Metzeler is one tight

tire.....what a fight, trying not to screw up the rim.

So, far the only one I can find on the net (it's in the UK) is at:

But, I don't want to pay a lot of $$$$$$$$$ for shipping for a $7 part.
