wheel issues

I was cutting some of the flash off of a tire and took a chunk out. What now???? Does anything cover up like rubber, or could I use putty and find a paint to match?

Re: wheel issues

You could to to electronic store and ask for liquid rubber. It's use to cover cables. It would do the trick i'm sure.

Re: wheel issues

My recommendation next time you're cutting flash off a tire is to use nail clippers, they work great as they're curved and can trim pretty close to the curve of the tire.

Rotate it until you can't see the missing chunk?
