A small little fix with a surprisingly big impact - removing the nibs/rubber hairs

Removing the rubber nib, removing knobs, removing hair off your tires



used one of the razor blades that we use for clear film installation to clip them off, some use nail clipper or box cutters all good.



a nice clean look. something so small and such a big impact ; )
