Is this normal?
I was outside today playing with my xmod and when i turned, one back wheel would come off. I have an Acura RSX, bearing upgarde, drag motor, soft springs in front, hard in back, and Ic3 batteries. Is that normal to happen?

No it is not normal. I would make sure that your wheel nut is on tight, and is not stripped.

Oh, well that iss actually quite normal for my 6 cell car. It is constantly throwing the rear tire off. You could glue it on, or stick a piece of thin double sided tape between the tire and wheel.

So, you can still secure the wheels the same way. The only thing holding the tires on is a little rib.

Use the double sided tape. You can get the thin kind from any office supply store. Your tires will still come off (when you pull them) and most of the time the thin tape wont leave any sticky stuff on your tires or wheels...Its just something that I use. I hope it works for you.
PS...Or just super glue them on !!!...

use rubber cement to glue it to the rim. if you want them to permemantaly put them on the rim use super glue. but if you want to change them use rubber cement. it will come off and doesnt ruin anything
