It being put on today. I got to touch it before I dropped it off. I couldn't feel any wax. Like it has a zero break in period. I feel like you can rub the rubber off with your bare hand!!!

Anyone else notice that???

They are soft. Most new tires don't come with the cosmoline (sp?) that they used to use for mold release. You will have to scrub it in like usual but break in time will be fairly short. As long as you aren't trying to fall down you shouldn't.
