Mounting slicks.

Foose04 · 11-16-2011, 09:47 AM

Any old school tricks to keep slicks from spinning on the rims? I'm trying not to run screws in the new rims, but my old setup less than 15psi would turn the slicks about 3-4"

I been told to carb clean rim mounting surface and carb clean the rubber as well. Any other tips?

I think I told you already but if not Im pretty sure I heard you can use talcum power for dry mount.

Something else I did for a while to keep from drilling my Bogarts is take some sandpaper and sand the inner lip of the rim where the bead rests against it. Make it a rough surface for the tire to rest instead of a smooth, polished one..
