Ok so what do I do when neither one will keep the abs on? I've superglued the heck outa my wheels, used like half a tube of modeling glue, went thru all kinds of tapes, almost considered epoxy but I want the abs to come off when it wears out...any suggestions?

i had the same problem, i just wrapped a nylon/material type tape around my rims until it was hard to fit the pvc on, works great for me.

Yeah I tried the electric tape between the wheel and the "tire" and the fit was so tight i had to get the edge of the tire on then put it on the ground and step on it to wedge it in place...works though

Get pipe thats about 1mm smaller than the diameter of the wheel, push the wheel in outside rim first - it will go in believe me - then 2 spots of superglue/ca/cyano/zap on one side of the wheel will keep it on
If you use too much you'll end up ditching the wheels
