    Are gluing tires an absolute pain for someone who's never done it before? Any tips/tricks?

    BTW guys I just got the Gorilla super glue, can I re-inforce already glued tires by adding another thin-ish layer of glue over the stock glue? Or will that cause issues?

    Yes, good suggestion! This way if I do glue my "hands" together, I can just take the gloves off!

    Thanks HPI! That sounds helpful, but knowing me, it'll run all the way around, drip everywhere, and I'll glue my fingers together while the tire glues itself to the rim crooked! If I can keep it on track though, sounds like a great idea! Unfortunatly, I may not try this out as the wheels I...

    Thanks Chubaka! Yes, doing the whole tires, both sides, at once would be a real feat, I highly doubt I could do a whole side at once!

    Good tip (no pun intended!)! Thanks Doom, I think I may have one or two of those tips around, if I can find them lol! $10 for up to 300 tips is a good value, but I really don't need that many tips, I'll probably use one or two of those and use some again in like years. I'm gonna search some...

    Hi everyone, I'm gonna get some new, gripper tires for my buggy, and I found these tires on Amazon, not my first pick, but the tires I wanted (Remo P6973s are a bit pricey at the moment at ~$12 for a pair, or they are out of stock)...
