Glueing Tires
 
Does anyone know how to glue on tires, or do you just use regular glue or something

You can use regular superglue. Just make sure you scuff the surface of the rim before you put the glue on, because it likely will not stick.

Superglue works good, or you can use double sided tape. I find that the tape is easier to deal with (still trying to get my fingers un stuck from the superglue incident of 2003) plus with the tape it is easier to remove the tires after they where down.

i used CA like is used for big RC cars to glue my tires its like super glue but thiner and not as instant a stick so you have some time to let it run around the tire. With CA put the tire on the rim and lift the edge put a drop or two of glue in that spot and keep pulling the tire up until you've gone all the way around then give it about a minute to dry.

thanx, what is the name of it is CA???

Superglue is CA glue. CA is short for Cyanoacrilate, which can come in many different consistancies. Superglue is fine for this, but tire glue is thinner, so it gets into the cracks better. If you really must have tire glue, go to your local hobby shop and ask them for tire glue.
