Jconcepts rulux wheels and losi bk-bar DON'T FIT
Im really pissed right now. I wasted some tires. The freaken losi bk-bar rear tires are too big for the jconcepts rulux rear 1/10th wheels!
I have gotten REALLY GOOD with glueing tires and this was just an absolute disaster! Is there anything I can do? Is one of the two wheel/tire companies at fault?

It isn't completely the tires fault. Since people would complain that the tire companies (except JConcepts) would fold the foams into the tire ruining the foams, losi now puts the full foam into the tire and that stretches the tire just a little bit. Also, the tires now barely fit onto losi rims as well. You just need REALLY, REALLY good tire bands.

Put them in an empty paint can with acetone and let them soak overnight. It will dissolve the glue. The tires will wear a little faster as they'll be softer with better bite and you'll have to get new foams but it's better than just tossing them out. This is also how you re use wheels after the tires have worn.
i just glued them today, never hit the track or touched the ground...
