Schumacher cut stagger Low Profile

[Kapros]

Hi,

I never ran these tires and just wonder if I need to drill holes on rim or on tire.

Thank you.

hi

what do you mean drill holes?

you can either stretch the tyre over the width of the wheel and leave the inner bead showing....looks weird...or (in what most people do) cut down the inner bead of the wheel to make it slimmer and this will make the tyre fit perfectly

hope this helps

Rims are already stretched.

This is what I mean by drilling holes :

I always trim down my wheels to fit slim staggers and you are right this covers the vent hole however as I don't glue yellow or green staggers I don't make any extra holes in the wheel or tyre as I can pull the bead back to get the flat spot out the tyre if needed

I only put a hole in the tyre if I run the silver compound as you must glue them to the rim and you can get the tyre imploding inwards without the hole to allow air in

When using new rims I put two small holes in the wheel where the bead wont cover it.

I then trim the inside bead off the wheel, and I glue ALL tyres to rims. If your tyres are not coming off with no glue, your not going fast enough!
A small trickle of thin glue around the bead will sort it out.

Just ensure the tyre is mounted good and true, this will enable accurate camber set up and smoother running.

Paul,
You confirm my thoughts.

Thank you very much!

Merry Christmas to you all.

Just to add to this when using Schumacher tyres whether front or rear does anybody use other manufactures wheels like JConcepts ,AKA etc rather than your chosen cars wheels ? Do they fit better or is it still the case of trimming and cleaning up the bead on the tyre still ?
Sorry for the Hyjack
