    I'd definately try 'em, heh. I've been using the shit nitrile ones I've had in the garage kicking around for 3+ years and they suck. Luke uses "Thicksters" which are fucking amazing for 80% of the work but end up stretching out and getting in my damn way.

    idk I work alot better without gloves unless there oil pouring out everywhere. When gloves get oily its a pain to use them. Ive got pretty meaty hands ( no homo )

    Oil changes. That's where I'll use gloves all the time from here on out. No reason not to at this point.

    I actually don't mind gloves for 60% of the work but I've got this issue with big palms, long fingers but all of my hand is pretty lean. I beat the piss out of my hands on suspension. Holy God do I beat the shit out of my hands.

    Lol , next time take a pic or make a vid.

    Yes and no. I struggled the fuck out of mine. Then again, I had been lifting 18x18 ceramic tiles in quantities of 10 upwards of 250 times for 7 hours prior.

    It'll break your knuckles open, but you should be able to dominate them with a breaker bar + e-brake + in gear. Don't be shy of 'em.
