In an old issue of LNN (about 1993 or 1994), I gave a building tip which you
might find useful... in order to pull your tire away from the closeout rib
without overcompressing the rubber doughnut, you can obtain undrilled
compression cups from Lancair. You can then drill the holes in the cups
yourself (on a drillpress) to pull the tire up an additional 1/8" ( this will
pull the tire back about 3/8" further from the closeout rib, because of the
"lever arm" effect).
