I think Rubber can take thin layer of CA. But you can try traditional 'Quick Fix' or 'Bond Fix' to be safe. Slow Cure (standard) Araldite/Anabond should do as well.
Santhosh do you have access to UHU POR Glue if not i can send you one tube. send me your postal address by pm

CA will work great
Loctite is the Best. I use it for my tyres.
The thing worthy to note is that they have different varieties.
There is one number i think Loctite 203 which is a specific CA Glue for Rubber and Plastic.
It is costly. About 500 bucks for a small bottle of CA. But definately worth it.
I run 1:8 Buggies and have never faced problems of the tyre coming loose.
is loctite locally available
Yes it is locally available.
You can get it at an Industrial Hardware store.

Which one are you currently using? Can you please share the details of the Loctite?
I have the loctite 495 but never used it,tried with the uhu por glue from our member bmanoj,seems to be ok but will give u a critical report aftr few days as my son is riding it and he is busy with his school studies
I use proper CA glue meant for tyres by Duratrax from Tower. quickfix doesnt hold well. Get something that will be safe on the foams.
