[AT] Sealing a tire to a rim

[Ronald L. Cook]

Charlie,
	You know the answer.  If you do not want trouble on down the line, you 
have to fix it correctly.  No slime or stop leak wonder crap.  Either a 
new rim which would be the best, or a tube.  The tube will have to be a 
radial tube, also.  Ask any tire man.
