Do a search on the bullet, scary stuff...yes we are talking about high powered cars, but why risk it and if the glue works for those same high powered cars then it's good enough for my junk and keeps me from having do drill my wheels.

if you screw definitely use a tube. some people dont but i wouldnt trust it sealing enough. the screws push the tire a little before they bite so it pushes it off the bead. i think i have 12 or 16 on each side. whatever you do, do both sides, if you do only one side of the wheel the tire can still turn on it and now its stretched diagonally. once you do the wheels for tubes there is no going back really, you have to drill out the valve stem hole.
