150s and 140s
Just mounted my new 140/90/15 tire on my LB200-2. Fits fine and I was wondering if a 150/90/15 could fit without a great deal of hasle. I didn't know if anyone else on here had atempted it.
"mounted" no air I ripped the innertube while geting the damn thing on. So off to the shop for a valve stem. I hate tubes anyway. |
Just as a follow up. With air (run'n tubless) 140/90 is the largest you can go on a LB200, SB200, or any Chuanl 200 variant with this swing arm.

So do you mean that by installing valve stems you can run your tires tubeless?
Do they have to be tubeless "rated"? |
I have put valve stems in aluminum wheels on a suzuki. Worked great.

Yeah, You can mount and balence any* tire tubed or tubless on NON-mag rims. They should be rated for tubless if you want to go tubless.
I have always found tubless tires to be eazier to install, but tube tires are kinda like runflats. If you can get over the PAIN of instalation. Although if you have "spoke" or "mag" rims you can't go tubless (there are some extenuating cercumstances though). *sized for your rim. |
I understand why you need a tube for wire spoked wheels, but tell me what you mean by "mag" vs Non-mag.
|
A mag wheel is a spoke wheel.
|
I always thought that "Mag" was a contraction of "Magnesium", this being the alloy that the early cast wheels were made of, mainly for racing purposes. Production cast wheels were in aluminium alloy.
Spoked wheels I understood to be usually called "wire wheels". |
