whats the best glue for tyres ??

[rondoolaa]

is it ok to use superglue to glue on tyres and once the tyres are worn will they easily come off again or is it best to use another type of glue??

thanks for any replies

you need to use CA glue which is strong enough to hold the tyre on and is thin so will run into the tyre bead. It will also run anywhere else too as its like water so be careful. It can be removed with the use of acetone. Some people on here sell it and it lasts ages. Some cheap nail varnish removers also contain acetone and does the job ok

Superglue is the best (i can recomend nuclear fusion ca glue!)
to remove the tyres once they are worn out, I always use acetone, the wheels are ready to use straight away afterwards

thankyou for the quick response,

i have loctite superglue easy brush and ever build industrial grade superglue,

would either of these be ok or would i be better off getting CA glue (whatever that is), lol

was thinking if i use superglue then just doing 4 spots on each side of tyre instead of all around the rim or is all around the rim best,,,

I have been using nuclear glue from belsten for ages..At the last regional i didnt have time to see belsten for a new pot so bought and used std ca tyre glue on the b44...both rear tyres and half a front came off and filled with crud during the day!!! Never once had even a hint of a loose tyre with nuclear..

thanks for all the info,

i need them for tomorrow night and its indoors so for now i've stuck them on with superglue ca...

not done all way round as its indoors so no dirt should get inside, thanks for the replys and help given..x

CA is CynoActrylate glue.

Superglue is just a trade name of one type of Cynoacrylate.

Easiest way to glue tyres is to use a water thin type CA, so that it flows all the way around the bead. Not sure if any of the types you mention are water thin?

4 dabs sround the rim will not hold them on at all well!!! Running the bead all the way round will make sure they never pop off under power/high speed turns, and keep all the dirt out!

Go nuclear...tis proper good
