seal a 2 piece rim

[twitch101]

i cant find a new o ring for my 2 piece rims and im away from home where i have a good set of solid rims. for now what can i use to seal the rim? ive tried clear silicone but its no good. is there something stronger?

I have never been able to seal a two piece, i end up putting a tube in them.

it was holding air before i changed tires on it. my tiny 18 inchers are on it now lol. i guess im going to try some blue rtv and at the extremes some epoxy

there are o ring kits where you can make your own and some places have tons of orings in a box to pick from..hardware store or plumbing supply?

I've beaded silicon and let it DRY to the touch, maybe even overnight THEN squeeze them together

its not like internal engine parts where the excess sili can plug stuff

tubes with tons of cornstarch so they dont scuff and wear holes in themselves?

ill try that today. let it dry on both rims then squeeze them together.
