I just got my first one, haven't had time to figure out what's wrong
with it. How are ya gonna whip (slide sideways) that puppy under the

That's always a handy move, and sometimes a necessary one.

I'd say pull 'em off and paint all the wheel *except* the tread with
bedliner.
Would do what lubing it does (I have noticed same thing Erik has)
except a bit better.
