My 65 Tr4 came with the old aluminum 8 spoke American Racing mags, like the rally cars had in the 60’s. Over the years various tire stores have given me conflicting advice as far as whether or not to install tubes or go tubeless. I recently read somewhere that modern radial tires are no longer smooth on the inside so they can wear a hole the tube.
I guess the question would be if these old mags are set up to seal properly with tubeless tires, or if they were designed to use tubes. I’ve gone both ways over the years, but kind of want to be safe. It’s time for new tires, so I need to start thinking about this. What are others out there doing?
Thanks,
Tom
