How were yours sealed? Do yourself or factory done? Notice a big handling feel with the radials? Thanks all...
yah, i get a kick outta that pic too eh.

not sure how they were sealed, done at hdwheels by andrei. the change due to the radials is significant as is the change due to the profile of the tire.

here's a couple pics of the wheels if yer interested





(picture removed. way too big)

Seal a rim spoked rim so you can run tubless tires? Hmmm it comes stock so not really sure how to answer that. There is a liner, a huge rubber band around the rim. That's all I can tell you.

Thanks RudeDog, thanks all. I appreciate the facts, opinions, warnings and links. I think I'll seriously consider going this route when tire time comes. Ride safe, all.
