@Eugen Yup... clean the crustys off the tire bead and then try some tire bead sealant - a local NAPA or auto parts store should have it... or Amazon (I did a quick look at Cdn Tire's website but that seemed to be a waste of time. it's a rubbery goo that gets brushed on the tire bead/rim and pretty much glues the rim to the tire - filling any voids... it will make removing the tire a lot more challenging the next time though. Tire shops use it to fix pitted aluminum rims with bead leaks.
Liquid stuff like "slime" that's good for fixing nail holes and small punctures won't work because it stays on the tread area of the tire...

Yup... Going to take more than black glue to fix those tired sneakers...
Let me know where the best place to get inner tubes is... I can see a set in my future too...

@Eugen do you want the 2 tires I took off of the rims you trade with me. The tires are weather checked but better than yours. I will be at Atlantic in the morning.

I appreciate the offer Eugene. I cannot go to Toronto tomorrow.
@Spike188 if you could leave them at Atlantic it would be best, I have nowhere else other than the university but that's far and Atlantic is not a big detour for me anyway.
