looking for a tube
« on: May 08, 2011, 11:10:18 pm »
I have a 15x6.5x8 rear tire and it has a slow leak. It is or the out side tire so going around a corner i am afraid it will blow. I am wanting to put a tube in it to help from blowing. Do they make them or do i put a different tube in it? Any help thanks.

Buy a new tire.  If the sidewall is bad it WILL blow.  A bad sidewall will pinch the tube an make it go flat as well.

Don't race on junk tires, you will get hurt.

Thats really good advice from Paul, a blown tire some times really hurts.

YUP Tubes now days are junk. I have quit using them. So what if they leak down over the week. At least I don't have to worry about the tubes blowing out.
