Smile Question About My Tires

Hey Everyone,

I have one question, on one of my Gen1 cars I have hard slicks on the front and soft slicks on the back. and when I go forward or on to a piece of carpet in my garage my tire always comes off the wheel and gets stuck between the rim and the chassie. Does anyone know any methods on how to fix this?

Thanks

ah the old centrifical force removing the tire thing. happened to me all the time. thats why I only run hard tires on all my cars. if you want to run soft tires you should get some paper thin double stick tape. but if you are looking to go permanently soft tires use some superglue on them.

also if you ever run stock tires you may also see the same problem come up again.

yeah superglue would work, but the proper way for a very hard bond is griplock. i think its only sold at AM, here is a link. http://www.atomicmods.com/Products/G...nd__10170.aspx

Grip lock is made for Golf clubs. ask a local golf shop if they will give you some.
