So I threw my brake back on after going brakeless for a day (and realizing its a pretty stupid trend) and it's rubbing against my rear tire like crazy. How do I fix this?

It makes sense if you actually need to, like for doing barspins and such but people who just pull them off to fit in are idiots. I just prefer running a brake is all.

Even tension and maybe a smaller tire if your wheel is wobbly

True your wheel
Think from memory you are meant to have about a 1/4 turn of pressure on the springs.
Make sure the pads are set up on the arms even
