i put a blob of glue on each screw head using a glue gun, then i lined the inside of the tyre with gaffer tape just once was enough, tyre was run 45-50 psi ive never had a puncture from the screws.

Now that is awesome. There is a use for old knackered tyres afterall then?
Oh there's an idea, a thread on what alternative uses do you have for things to recycle them after they have come to the end of their intended use.

i added the screws not long after the tyre went out of production.
this tyre is going a bit crusty in places so i think im going to make another pair choosing a modern tyre that is relatively narrow and has knobs that will support each screw to some degree which is key i think.
