Hi
Has anyone any tips for fitting solid rubber tyres to aluminium wheels (2in Clayton) they need to expand by about 1/8” and will they need any glue.
Regards Keith

Isoflex is the prefered adhesive for solid rubber tyres, you have a primer & separate adhesive.
 
Have a look at Julia Olds site as it gives a good description, you could also ask on Traction Talk forum as Terry from double B supplies a lot of the tyre material and can answer your questions, also a search back through the model forum there will find some posts on the subject.
