Hi guys, yes i have done a search and no luck, this may be a stupid question, but nobody seems to know it, can i run tubes in my 36 pedes on 15x10 with second airs? i wish to do this to hopefull make them a little bit tuffer while out hunting. Cheers.

nope u cant, and why would u want to, the 2nd air is a bead lock, so u wont have any prob with the simex popping a bead etc, so just drop the pressure to 2psi and away ya go

No not to stop popping the bead off, but to make the side walls a bit tuffer, so if i get a tiny cut in the sidewall the tube can stil be good???

why would you want a tube with 2ndair?

tyre goes dead flat straight away, compared to inserting a plug, and pumping it up, tube means strippiing and re fitting the 2ndair every time......

I dont know where you would put the valve stem, hang on drill 1/2' hole through the middle of the tread, turn the tube insideout, poke the valve stem through the hole in the tread and there you go Secondairs and tubes.
