    HOW TO MOUNT BRM SPONGE TIRES?
    1. What is the recommended adhesive to mount the BRM sponges to the wheels?
    — Clear nail polich or top-coat?
    — Rubber or contact cement? (seems like it would be too lumpy…)
    — 3M spray adhesive?

    2. Application:
    — Smear a thin layer on all of the wheel tre mounting surface?
    — Apply 4 or 5 dots or lines at equadistant points on the wheel?
    — Dots on the inside rim only?

    3. Tools
    — A Q-tip? k-boob skewer? long zip-tie? toothpik?
    — stiff paint brush like used with rubber cement?
    — a gloved finger?

    At 4-years old in Pensacola I repaired my steering linkage on my Ford Pedal-car. Dad later converted this car to a Blue Angel with ailerons and elevators with a working "stick/yoke"; the rudder was controlled by the steering wheel. I like all motorsports - I grew up going to a NASCAR Feeder track with Sportsman and Modified classes, and was lucky to attend drag races in 1970 at Orange County Raceway. My first solder-iron was a Christmas gift at 9yo; I modified T-Jets to be AFX spec before AFX Cars were in local stores. I rebuilt a few tractor & car (SIMCA) engines plus transmissions by 15yo (I still have my ring-compressor and valve spring tool) I am a former mountain and road bike geek & perennial sound engineer.
