Just wondering what most guys run when running supertracks on an 8x8. I have a conquest and have been having trouble with the tires spinning on the rims and ripping the valve stems from the tubes. I am going to try and go tubeless on the fronts and rears on both sides to see if things improve. Any comments/suggestions appreciated. |

Tube are not to be used, I run 21" Rawhide tires on the new 8x8 bead lock rims, I got them from Richard Clark, tire problems went away Jeff Bar |

You could always do the old screw through the rim thing. That is where you put a short screw through the bead section of the rim. The screw should be just long enough to prick the tire without going all the way through the tire. |

there are two pictures of this simple and cheep mod on the "how too" page here on rout6x6 about 3/4 of the way down the page. (it works very good and allows use of tubes, evan at really low tire psi) |
