The tyre may be... the rim needs one tho.

It has been said that some rims can be porous and so a tube was used across the board to be on the safe side.
IIRC though the rim and bead fit are different for tubeless (MT wheels) and older wheels. If that is the case, will a tubeless tyre on an LC rim give a perfect fit?

No tubes - No problems here. Not even on over sized tyres. But if your tyres are deflating over time stick a tube in. I know I would. It's not really an argument. I suppose the matching numbers drab olive brigade are having an apoplectic fit at the thought of it.

Same for me no tubes with BT45 on LC rims i did how ever add some fluid which the mountain bike lads use. Ive done track days, normal road riding and even let the pressure down and went flat tracking. So far so good.

Both BT45s would go flat after two months or so on my 350N. They have tubes in now and the green bolt fanatics can think whatever they want

The Metzeler ME77 that's on mine does state 'tube type' on it's side wall funny enough.
