I got new wheels today. Even though I have a little while to go before it’s back on the road, I wanted to be ready.
So I have a question. The wheels say they are suitable for tubeless tires, and in fact have the spoke holes sealed and already have the valve stems in place. I figured I would use tubes, and have already purchased tubes to go with the new Vredesteins. Now I’m thinking I should go tubeless. Is there anyone running tubeless tires on newish MWS wheels? Any issues with it?
I put firestone radials on my new MWS 15x6’s. One had a slow leak on install, figured out it was the air stem. Took two turns to tighten it up. Been about a year and have not had to refill them since.
One more, not MWS but Daytons. I had 15X6 tubeless wires on the 2+2 for maybe 10 years. 12,000 miles without any leaks and I’ve had 15X6 tubeless wires on the FHC for about 3 years and 5,000 miles. Never a leak on any of them.
