Okay you selfish impatient bastards! You forced me to leave early. On a Friday no less. And then have to come home and work on my H3. You bunch of worthless ingrates! It was pure utter HELL!!!

Pic five - Partially stuffed. I didn't have a Hummer dealer nearby like Neo did so I used the next best thing. A 10" timber left over from a woodworking project

Pic Six - Clearance - The wheel isn't fully stuffed so I don't know if this is fair, but there is about an inch to inch and a quarter worth of space between that flange and the tire.

Looking good. See what happens when you listen to use, you get to go home early on a Friday and play

Things learned in the process.
1. It takes about 35-45 minutes of working slow to change four wheels.
2. It wasn't hard at all to do. Hell, Even HI could do it in an hour 
(here comes trouble!)
3. It takes about 1 fully charged, three year old, Ryobi 18 volt battery to remove and install 4 wheels using an impact driver. No, the Ryobi doesn't snug the lugs up fully, but it takes them off nice and quick!
4. I seem to have lost some weight. My god damn pants keep falling down! 
I felt like Home Boi G and I'm sure I nearly gave some old woman the thrill (or fright) of her life!
5. The TPS warning NEVER came on. Weird... I did leave the OE spare on for right now as these will be coming off in a few days.
and finally

Thanks Newbie! It was fun
Oh, it rides really quietly now. Much quieter than the OE Bridestones.

Lookin good. Dont forget to retorque lugs after a 100 miles. I had 2 that needed alittle snugging. Did you do a T-bar adjustment? A couple turns will give you a extra inch of clearance. They look great! It would be had for me to take them off. Really sets your rig. W.T.G. dOg

i think the only reason he will take them off is to have the pressure sensors installed they really make it look tough
