I don't see any problem with using the wheels and tires for meets As far as removing the lettering Iam not sure what works best. I have used black marker to cover white Lettering on black tires. But going the other way not sure.

Not sure this will work for you but might. Take oiler out and see if to can stick a rod in the hole as it might come apart like the early columbia cranks you jam the crank and then unsrew the crankarms . One will be righthand thread the other left.. I have need seen that crank style in a Cleveland? You never no till you try.

I don't think they will stretch on to the 30 inch rims I have  pair that I got some time ago and could not get them on the wood rims i wanted to put them on.  If you are interested in them get back to me .  They are 28 inch and if you are going to splice them on, the pair would work for one rim.

As you say it does happen. I got rear ended last summer with 2 1890,s bikes on my bike rack. Was not a good day. One bike is being repaired the other hoping to find another frame. I did make out okay with my insurance . Also had 3 other bikes in the rear of my Rav4 and they where okay . Also no blood which was the good thing.
