Question on tubes

Post by superbee70 »

No experience with tube tires, except bikes. Can any tires be installed with tubes? I'm looking at a set of 16" BFG's. Would these work on M37 rims with the correct tube size?

16" Budd rims on the M37 are tube type and require both tube and flap for proper instillation, any good 16" tube type tires will work but not 16.5 tubeless ones.

Remember that if you run a radial tire you must also use a radial tube.

You can use radial tubes in radial or bias-ply tires, but bias tubes ONLY in bias-ply tires.
