OK question…

How come your 2.2 rear tires and wheels don't mate up so well?

I just received a large tire order to run the supercup next week and got some wheels and the splitters need to be forced into the wheel beads or they just dance around loosely. Panther tire beads drop right into your wheels as well as into AKA wheels perfectly and you actually need to drop the bead into position quickly after applying glue because they tend to sort of snap into position firmly.

With the Splitters I have to squeeze them down onto the wheels firmly even with my tire bands. The solution I devised to remedy this is to place silicone wrist bracelets onto my tires first and then slide them over the bead area and then place my JC tire bands over those so it forces the tires onto the bead more firmly.
