Double-pane glass is glued together with something that rarely leaks (in the 1" commercial applications that I use.) The pressure in the tire will put pressure on the strip of tube, making for a lot of movement during tire changes that windows don't experience.

Another possibility would be to use the gel only on the spoke nipples inside the wheel and use one of the really 'tough' high-adhesion silicon rubbers to protect the soft stuff. That way the 'soft' stuff would allow adjustment and the 'tough' stuff would provide protection.
Come to think of it, my mother-in-law's version of 'rice' might do the job as a sealant and adhesive. She thinks the smoke alarm was invented to tell her when she's done cooking dinner. :-D
