Hi All, i have attempted a number of times to remount / reglue my tyres onto the rims but i don't seem to be able to get them to stay on. I run my Kraton 6S on 75% speed most of the time and i do run it on rough rocky ground which i suspect makes it tough. I will admit that the first few times i attempted to reglue the tyres i did not clean up the residual glue from the rim or tyre and simply slapped on loads of glue. My most recent attempt I used sandpaper and acetone to try and clean the mating surfaces before applying glue and used a rubber band to apply pressure while it dried. This marginally improved the result. Is there a better way or have i messed up my rims and tyres and need to buy new ones?

I try to clean the mating Surface of the rubber & wheel with sandpaper 1st then 91% alcohol. This removes the release agent & any other contaminates from the maybe surfaces...

Also, diff tuning may help if it's separating because a wheel is diffing out.
