Glue Your R/C Tires Like a Pro
In our first how to video James shows how to properly glue a set of 1/10th scale RC Car tires. WARNING: Use EXTREME CAUTION when using any cyanoacrylate adhesives (C/A Tire glue) as it glues skin and eyelids instantly! Safety First!
The technique shown in this video is best suited to very thin C/A Tire Glue. For using thicker glue, check out this video from Horizon Hobbies that shows the use of their Losi Brand Glue. • HorizonRC.Com How-To: ... .
Proper gluing techniques are very important so that your tires don't part company in the middle of the race and leave you in last place. Tire foam inserts are also very important and the AKA moulded closed foam seem to be about the best we've found for consistency and firmness. They also seem to fill the cavity the best. James also shows the method of trimming open foam inserts like the pro-line brand. Some people prefer the open foam inserts and as long as they are trimmed and glued consistently you may find they work just fine for you.

Great video! I was finally able to glue a set of tires without it looking like an eight year old did it LOL
Need to get the kid outta the store
I just did my first tyre glues tday. Aweful.
9 min In on a video I wanted to see how to glue… and no glue been used yet. Shouldn’t you clean the rims too
Cutting the edge of the foam makes the tyre more round with softer sidewalls... geniouse idea
Watching step one and I’m already excited to just buy pre mounted tires forever
That's exactly what happens when I did my first set, didn't get wonky thankfully but the glue was inconsistent and heavy so I had lots extra on my tires which didn't look so pretty.
My tire glue jobs have never been as good as I'd like. Definitely going to give this a try! Thank you!
are there molded inserts for the Proline Trencher 40 series??
I find it better to glue your tires without a shirt on.

I have never mounted my own tires. I am glad I watched your video. Very well done. Thanks.
We are gluing our first rc tires today. Thankyou for the lesson.
Very useful info. Not sure how well this may hold up in some of the 8th scale bashers but 1/10 buggies and onroad this is a great idea.
Hi James. The videos are great, the best RC content on KZread at the moment. Keep up the good work.
Just glued some tires using your method and it worked perfectly. Thank you!
Very thorough and straight to the point. Thank you.
Definitely using the thin CA glue from now on.
