Way off Topic..

Yes. the PVC/ABS/PE IS the Tyre..
WHy do we do it?
So we have as little traction as humanly possible and you must do it to ALL 4 WHEELS! not just the front or Just the Back but all 4 Wheels!!!

How do you get 50mm Pipe to fit on 52mm rims??
You heat the Pipe ONLY,.. not the Rims.
Heating the rims will cause them to Buckle and warp and then you can kiss good bye to your rims..

Heat the Pipe ONLY..

To remove is Easy..
You use a steady hand and either a chisel or a Stanely knife and cut the pipe where the wall is skinniest on the rim.

The Heating method requires no Glue.. the pipe shrinks down over the top of the rim.
