    Are Inner Tubes Neccesary in Front Tires?

    Those are good points. I could see a tire coming off the bead in a sharp turn, just enough to start leaking or get dirt in it. With a tube that wouldn't be a problem.

    I suppose it doesn't cost much to try.

    Are Inner Tubes Neccesary in Front Tires?

    Yes. I'm pretty sure the valve stem is leaking. I can see a crack in the rubber there. But my question is whether I can put a tubeless type valve stem in the hole and go without a tube.

    JD Rims on Farmall M?

    I have a chance to get a nice pair of half-tread 15.5-38 tires for cheap (around $400 for the pair). I need tires really bad for my 1945 Farmall M (I think I the air inside when I walked by the other day). The rims are off a JD 4020. Rims and tires are wider than the tires I have now, and I...
