STAGE 35:

Left front wheel 2.

Pic 1: The wheel from the previous stage will fit inside the tyre 35-1.
Make sure you insert the wheel the correct way up.
You will very likely need to soak the tyre in hot water for several minutes before fitting it to the wheel.
It is a VERY tight fit.
Dry the tyre thoroughly first and take care when using hot water.
