Default Re: Tubeless tires?

Guys, guys, I keep hearing a myth repeated.

The "bumps are for tubeless tyes."

Wrong.

Tubeless tyres were introduced many years before the bumps were thought of.

Millions of motorists did billions of miles on tubeless tyres before the bumps were introduced.

I have not run any early ford on tubeless, but my 58 GMC had less problems running tubeless than it did with tubes, admittedly with radial tyres.

No bumps in sight.

Don't let the lack of bumps put you off.

As with all things, good maintenance of tyre pressures and inspection of tyre condition is always a necessity.
