Tubes or tubeless????

Recommended Posts

Forest Road

I fell across another deal last night. I went out to get A SINGLE SET of wheel weights.... That's what I told my wife! I came home w/ 3 sets of cast iron wheel weights and a set of Carlise Tru Power 23x8.50x12 tires mounted on rims. I think the rims will fit my WH. But what is preferred?

The PO had the tires mounted w/ tubes. Now with my luck I'll find another nail and have to remove the tire. So are you a fan of tubed OR tubeless tires? Before I put the tires on the 312-8 I'd love to get this straightened out.

Thanks

I have the same tires mounted tubeless, one won't hold air so I may have to use a tube. I would much prefer to find a shop that uses Arnco flat proofing and foam them both. Not much chance in this part of VA......

I prefer tubeless when possible.

I have tubeless on mine, but if you have Wheel Horse Wheels I would not change them.

Tubes are great if the tire loses air for any reason. If the tires had already been tubed, it was probably for a reason and you might want to continue using them.

Thanks guys. The tires are brand new. The PO had them tubed because he didn't know any better.And the dealer took his money. The rims were on a roper. If they'll fit the WH they're going on! I' leaning towards tubeless and filling them.

Now if I can figure out a way to mount all three sets of wheel weights on the tractor.... 150 lbs per wheel or better:)

I put tubes in everything when I replace tires or when they start leaking since I get tired of going to use the tractor and finding out that the tires have gone flat again.
