Are the dirt bonez the tires that come on the 18ss? If so, you better never run those things on pavement. They will get chewed up REAL fast.

as for glueing. I rough up the bead of the tire with a dremel. I just put the tire on the rim and push the lip of the tire to the inner most part of the rim. That way you can put a bead of glue all the way around the rim. then just pull the tire bead back onto the rim lip that has glue and make sure it seats in nicely. This usually gives you enough time to get the tire situated before the glue dried.

no exhaust yet. dirt bonez tyres should be here friday. a quick question on glueing. how do i stop them from going lumpy around the edges and get a nice smooth edge with no lumps around the tyre

Thanks
