Default What tire GLUE ? 1/8 gas buggy ?

Has any one had luck with shoe goo ?

For mounting gas 1/8 off road scale buggy tires ?

Asking to try to find someting outher than super glue /
so I don.t rip up tires taking off rims .
Im' in the process now boiling some old bowties and they have some life but.... I.m STILL ripping them. AFTER 1/2 HOUR BOILING ......... !%!#$%

Anything else out there that you have had good luck with ..
good holding power ???

And be able to remove later ?
THANKS rON

Stick with the CA glue, shoe goo isn't the answer. Instead of boiling the wheels, put some foil on a cookie sheet, preheat the oven to 350. Once the oven is at 350, put the wheels on the cookie sheet, SHUT OFF THE OVEN, and put the cookie sheet in the oven. Leave them in for 15 minutes. As the oven cools, the glue will crystalize and the tires come off with very little effort.
