CMB:
Put a pair of gum T1 grips and a new brake cable on.

When you use a gas station air compressor that has no gauge and it explodes while in your roof rack or in your trunk may not be weird but it is fully frightening.

Dude. No.
You will be better off lacing yourself and getting it right.

But it's only $35 a wheel and I'm lazy. Plus I can never make the hops go away.

I had that happen in the bike shop I helped out at. Blew the sidewall out , sounded like a 12 gauge. Still not as loud as the transport that grenaded a tire while I was passing it on the highway. That was crazy loud
