Can you use the rubber cement that you get in Bike Tube Repair kits to glue your tyres to your rims?

I wouldn't trust it to have a strong enough bond.

As a biker, I really should know this....

But I'm not sure! I don't think it would work, because that glue is meant to stick a little patch to an innertube, most likely different types of plastic/rubber than an RC car tire/wheel. Besides, isn't CA glue rather thin? Bike repair kit glue is kind of thick (at least compared to CA I think).

For bashing tires i just use super glue, it holds fine.
