I just got a set of resin wheels and urethane tires. The wheels are steelies with no bead and fit the tires fine, but slip down through making it hard to line up. The wheels backs fit perfect so my question is - can I glue the wheels to the tires without trashing something ? I use Locktite Super Glue Gel for other stuff but not sure how it react with rubber. Any suggestions ?

It could be worth trying bicycle puncture glue. It wont damage the rubber or resin and will take longer to dry so you can line them up. Enamel paint might also work

Thanks I'll give it a try! I was kind of wondering about urethane adhesive of some sort, but not sure about the reaction (or if it would ever set up).

up side to the bike tire rubber is it takes up the space seems like it might work but not really having fooled with aftermarket wheels other then wires or the five starts that came with the tires maybe i better hush lol

I'll try the rubber stuff as you guys said, it sounds alot more forgiving (& cheaper!). Thanks
