Just finished and they are on...phew.

Fronts went on with no problem...sealed up straight away.
Rears would not seal so I had to resort to the awning pull down straps that have a crank on them. What I had to do was to push the tyre to one side of the wheel until it jammed up against the small rib about 10mm in from the lip. Then wrapped the strap around the other side of the tyre and tightened it until I could see it seal to the wheel. Before using the compressor I applied some soapy water and took out the valve to give max flow. Then went for it and it sealed straight away. Second one, same method and it worked again....not nice but not impossible....next time I will try to leave the valve in and maybe not apply the soapy water.

Now I've have done it I would feel happy to do it at the circuit...hope this helps.
