Default CA

I use a slow setting black CA. Don't use the thin stuff,
there's not enuff time to make sure the tire is on the bead.

Super glue your tires down and then use rubber bands to hold the beads tight in the wheel

Thats what I thought too when I first started gluing tires way back when, but now Thin is the only way to go.
(I'm not saying your a newb)
You basically only apply two drops and the pressure of the tire to the rim beads it down half the tire.
Use Rubber bands to apply pressure.

That sounds like it should be a catch phrase for a commercial!

What the heck is up with posting at 11:00 with your question and then posting at 11:03 asking for people (correction: "u's") to "plz" reply. Have more than 3 minutes of patience and skip the ignorant slang.

Back on point: Use slow or medium CA glue, available at your local hobby shop. In a pinch, super glue will do it if you absolutely must.
