Default Tire bead

Question on a tire bead. Have a small tear in the bead, Can this be fixed? I can't post pics so sorry.
How would I go about the repair?

Thank you

Standard CA tire glue, just get a little bit inside the tear and let it sit.

I've repaired a couple without issue.

Any "tire glue" is CA glue.
Crazy Glue is CA glue.
Gorilla Super Glue is CA glue.
Super Glue is CA glue.

Cyanoacrylate Adhesive can be found under many different brand names. You probably know others, without ever having realized they were "CA" glue.

Your local hobby shop, Amazon, online hobby shop, eBay - cyanoacrylate glue is the full name.

It's what other R/C vehicles use instead of beadlock wheels to keep their tires attached.

Ok thanks. Didn't know if it was brand specific or not. Like a speciality glue etc.
