super single go's my deuce

[red devils dude]

called berg today $50EA for the 11.00R20 XL's I want a little less for NDT's
so what I need to know can I run them dished in without fliping the hubs
since I'm going to be going back and forth from the singles to the 9.00
dules and how much are good deuce rims worth.

Sounds like a good deal for radials. You can run dished out, but obviously the front and rear track will be different. What is reason for going back and forth? Used rims about $10-$25, unless they already have some tires mounted (+$20). Just like the tires, location (shipping) is everything.

 

[red devils dude]

I think I can get rims locally alot of the potato farms have deuce's, and the tires are 50% or better
tread (What is reason for going back and forth) I dont want to use the radials anymore then I need to
and I dont want to put a lot of weght on the singles.

 

[M1075]

I think you'll like the radials better. No problem on the weight.

this says Michelin XL's are tubeless??

Tubeless construction compatible with
central tire inflation systems as well as bead
locks and/or run-flat devices.*
* Except for 16.00 R20 XL. May be used with tube.

But with the stock split rims, you still need the flap and tube.... don't you?

PAPPA-G!!! Enlighten us!!!!!

Sure you can!
You just have to use a tube.
Done that many times with split rims and tubeless tires.....

Im quite sure the questioner was asking if you could run the tire tubeless
So my answer is correct.......but you knew that.....didnt you.

[red devils dude]

no I ment can I still use it on my split rims with no special parts.

 

[FSBruva]

Even though the TIRE can be used without a tube, the WHEEL requires the flap and tube (just like the NDT's). Joe Young has stressed that getting new flaps and tubes is encouraged when changing tires.

The tubeless tire must have a tube for use on your split rims. Flaps will lengthen the life of the tube but depending what you read they may or may not be absolutely necessary. ( see usa6x6.com

I put new flaps in mine when I replaced the tires but was able to reuse the 9x20 tubes on the 11x20's.

 

[red devils dude]

FSBruva states:

should read: Even though the TIRE can be used without a TUBE, the WHEEL requires the flap and tube.

Fill 'em with cement. No tube, flap, air, punctures, etc.
Ride quality MIGHT suffer a bit.

ok shipping for 7tires $236.00 for 11tires $269.00 what do you guys think singles or duels I cant make up my mind.

 

[mangus580]

I would go duals.... DUALS RULE!

 

[Armada]

I've always liked the look of duals myself.
One thing I've noticed is that the rear singles will 'sink' into the ground a little more than the duals because the weight is not dispersed as much with the singles. That said, get the 11 tires and put on the singles. If you're hauling an extra heavy load or will be on softer terrain, you can always add the others.

duals

 

[red devils dude]

ok looks like I'm ordering 11tires
