If you need to clean your tires use a fingernail brush with some warm soapy water. Dip the brush and scrub the tires, don't submerge the tire/wheel combo or they'll get alot of water in there...as you now know.

Just be sure to use a small straw, like the one off of a WD-40 can, you can clean it out before you use it by spraying the WD-40 through it.. :-P ..

I had the same thing happen to me after driving around in a brook.I used a small flat screwdriver and pryed a small section of the rear of the tire off the wheel and used the screwdriver to pull the tire away from the wheel while holding it upsidedown.All the water came running out down my arm so do it over a sink or something.Dry the wheel and tire and reglue that small section.I put an air valve in my wheel's and sealed the vent holes.Now i can pump up the tires for mud/water and best of all i can remove air and make the tire wrap around a rock like a glove,best traction i ever had,and no water in the wheels
