Question wheel glue?

ok so I've got the stock wk wheels and I'm narrowing them but the question is what kind of glue can I use? I know theres the ca glue but I can't find any, could I use super glue? or epoxy? something cheap and reliable and easy to get.

I will tack the wheels with a CA glue then use a two part epoxy to keep them together. Does the job.
I used to use fiberglass instead of epoxy, but its really just over kill.
good luck

Super glue is a CA glue. I would go with epoxy on top of it also. Be sure to scuff up the plastic where the epoxy will be applied.

Use a thin CA to tack them together, then use a rubberized CA to finish them up.
