Tire questions

I have cheng shins on mine, and im pretty satisfied. Plus I only spent around 60 dollers for both. I didnt want to use a jack on my bike, so I took the seat and trunk of the bike and used an engine hoist with a strap around the frame. I lifted the back off the ground then set the wole bike on a big truck tire. The engine hoist also keeps the bike upright so no falling over. I also got a chain with a master link, it makes the job easier ad their cheap. I didnt get an O-ring chain, I dont see much of a difference, and i oil it about ever 2-3 weeks with 80-90W gear oil. I mounter my tubes and tires myself, its pretty easy, but I had to drive 115 miles to balance them.
