    Default Crown the tyres

    so, my old Durden B1200 needs to tyres, and when i look at the wheels i note that the tyre sits in a recess. The question is, what is the best way to crown tyres that sit in a recess?
    many thanks for any advice

    are you sure the recess is not crowned?
    Not much of a crown is needed.
    If it is flat you can use something like a thin strip of gaffer tape.
