Glueing the Tires?

[MAD-MAXX]

I'm Getting Some New Cheyenne Rims And Big Joes. I Have Never Had To Glue My Tires On So I Need Some Help. Do I Just Put Glue All Over In The Inside Of The Tire Or Do I Just Do The Sides Of The Tire? Thanks PPL In Advance

You put the glue on the inside of the rim, in the little grooves that the tire fits in..

Put the tire completely on the rim first and dry fit it, then just open the gap up some and squirt the glue in, rotate it and do it again. Should be good to go.

Be careful & take your time bro... You can make a real mess out of an expensive set of tires, real fast....

That's if you go the route of cheapy chrome rims that have been chrome painted all over....hell, even the stock hpi savage wheels don't have chrome in the grooves...so I'm guessing that higher-quality proline won't either...

no the proline rims dont have chrome on the glueing area. i did a bad job of glueing mine the first time i had ever glued tired to rims and they got full of dirt and my radial duct-tape was wound up inside giving them a bad wop. i sprayed the hell out of the glued area with some simple green and they pealed right off. the foams are outside drying at this very moment. I'm ablout to re-glue this evening.

holy poop mad-maxx you have over 800 post sinc march. good god POST WHORE
