Make sure to buy the right size. The tape comes in two widths: 25mm (medium) and 16.5mm (small). The 16mm tape works on rims up to 21mm at the rim bed, and the medium is for rims wider than that. (If the tape overhangs the edge of the rim, it can easily be trimmed with scissors or a razor blade.) The tape runs about $14 for a single-wheel roll, and $7 per wheel when you buy the 16-meter shop roll"
I buy the 16 meter roll which I can buy on ebay for less than $90:

16 meters is about 7 1/3 wheels, so over $12 per wheel. A $20 can of glue will mount ~20 wheels- a better deal in my book.
