sotal Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Just bought some Greenway 235/85/16 MT tyres off another forum member, they're fitted on defender steels (which look identical to the LWB Series rims I had on before) I've fitted them to my 88" Series truckcab and was wondering what pressure I should be running them at. I do a bit of on road travelling - no motorways though, and then I go to the local pay and play sites. Also the tyres say they are tubeless, but would they be fitted with tubes anyway? How can I tell without taking the tyre off if they have tubes or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Henson Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Can't help with the tube thingy, but 28-32psi would be ok - 32 if you have some weight in the back. Les. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitform Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Look at the valve, if you can see the hole in the rim where the valve sticks out of, then it's fitted with a tube, if you can't see the hole because of the rubber at the base of the valve then it's tubeless.

Thanks for that - that's what I thought it was - in which case they are tubed. Is tubed OK with "tubeless" tyres? Thanks Les - I'll aim for about 30ish then. It made me wonder a bit as it said max pressure was 65psi which seemed very high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
