Default Tires coming off wheels

I have the LOSI TORQUER wheels and MINI-DUPLEX-MAX tires. With my brushless setup the tires balloon and eventually the CA gives way. I cant keep the tires on the rims. Are there any tips or tricks to keeping the tires on?

It's pretty normal with brushless power, however, the glue should be able to hold it for some period of time before it starts to rip. What I do usually is check the tires every run and apply more CA as necessary. This way, you won't have that problem. Also, make sure that you do it properly when you glue your tires.

Try putting duct, 100MPH or electrical tape on the inside of your tyre before you glue it on the rim.
