tube vs no tube

ohmar99 · 06-01-2010, 02:58 PM

tire seems to be in good shape, but it has a tube in it. tube is shot. should I just put a new tuce in it? I currently use the cart for hauling people all over the campground. has the Duro excel 18-8.5-8. where is a good place to get a tube.

what year is the cart, they should be tubeless

its a 1995 and yes it says tubeless right on the tire. however it had a tube it is sitting by my feet with a big hole in it. the tire has good tread with some weather cracking on side wall. but that side wall is what I am afraid of. i should be able to plug the tread correct?

If the side wall is cracked i bet someone put a tube in it due to the sidewall leaking. yes you can plug the tread. I do it with no issues.

I have put tubes in tires b4 if the customer request it. I do NOT warranty the tube or work. if the sidewall is leaking i trash the tire. not worth a law suit over.

Sounds like sidewall is cracked all the way through and is pinching the tube. Best to replace the tire. I've seen tires on craigslist before at cheap prices.

$23.00 not alot of money for a tire, plus a little security knowing you have a good tire.
