Default Screwed wheels + drag radials = ??

Ok guys, I have a pair of 16" firebird wheels with 11.5" MT ET Streets mounted on them, the previous owner screwed the wheels as a beadlock (although I dont think it helped)

Basically I want to lose these 11.5"s they are too much tire, but I'd like to keep the wheels. Obviously with a drag radial I would probably have no need for the screws but the wheels still have holes in them.

Can I just JB weld them closed or something like that ? Is it safe ?

Thanks guys

dont need JB weld, just throw the tires on...the inside lip of the radial will seal fine....I have done it a couple of times before.
