I used Loctite 406 Instant Adhesive on recomendation of Rubbaneck. And it worked great for doing my super tires.

Would shoe goo work? Might make it significantly easier to cut the tire off in the future.

I have also used the 406 for my cut'n'shuts. Great tack and a strong hold.

I agree with G-crawler, use a tire glue. It is specifically made for tires and if kep in the fridge and used with the thin straw applicator and good rubber bands, it is flawless. Coming from the Buggy Truggy world and the 1/8 scale nitro world, I have never has a tire fail that was done properly. That means use the right glue, clean the bead and wheel with Nitro Engine Cleaner. If the rims are painted or plated, removal of the paint or chrome is best but abraiding it (or putting a tooth on it as our brit friends would say) will work.

Really just spot glueing them. I've got beadlocks but they won't hold my 2.2 TSL they just pop off the wheel so I need to spot glue them.

Just get some CA and put a couple small tacks and itll help. Im sure you could use super glue too, just dont use alot of either one.
