Tires spinning on Rims, Whats the Fix - 08/24/11 03:05 AM

Tried Moroso Tire Screws,
Tires still tried to move, bent all the Screws

Took out the Screws and Tried High Tack, Tires still moved
Cleaned off High Tack and Used 3M window Weld this last time. One Tire Stuck and the other Moved about an Inch.
Any Suggestions?

I didnt like the Moroso screws so I went to a fastener
place and got harder screws PLUS you do need more screws
if you bent those... I run 1.21 60' on the norm but
have been 1.19.... actually more screws is better
anyways so it keeps a flatter foot print on the track...
also make sure they are going into the big part of
the bead

More air in the tires and or more screws.

it's only a problem if you run tubes. i was using tek screws & only on the inside & installing them with the cordless drill but last season i ran nothing & they only moved 3" before they stopped. i run 1.4 60's & swap wheels side for side at half season. even after i swaped sides they didn't move & i'm only running 7.5lbs pressure.

Convert wheels to bead locks and never slip a tire again! Of course that's not a cheap conversion, but you can add up to 1" of rim width at the same time.

I run the 1022 tires no tubes no screws no slippage 1.02-1.04 60'. I clean the rims on the inside rather they need it or not every time the tires come off.Almost forgot if the tire is not new also clean the bead.Only let them use soap & water when mounting them.

This is about the best picture I have of rear slicks,but maybe you can see I do not run any screws. Maybe a good cleaning of the wheels & tires will solve your problem.
