glueing rims back together?
 

what are you guys using to put them back together? i want something strong that won't eventually break apart.. by the time my rims are done, they should be about 3/4" to where the tire will be glued on :D but need a kick ass glue first :?

I have used PVC pipe cement, or JB Weld. It just depends on the type of plastic rims and the amount of working time I need. The pipe cement is super strong, dries almost instantly, it welds the plastic together/melts it together, but doesn't give you any room for error.

You just want to make sure, when using JB weld and gluing the wheels back together, to really rough up the two sides being bonded together. I had one set that was fairly smooth and the bond broke.
