Hi.
I have just obtained a set of Goodyear G90 tubeless tyres and (in a separate deal) a set of rims from a Land Rover 130 (5 1/2Jx16 - RRC503600).
I am intending to use these on my Land Rover series 1 1956 86" (Military Rover Mk3).
It only goes out a few times a year and can only travel at a speed of 45-50mph at best.

My query is: I was wondering if I could/should use inner tubes? is it even possible? is there any point? given that the rims & tyres are tubeless, just thinking if the tyres don`t seal when I go to fit them!? Anyone have any thoughts on this please?

Thanks
Colin

Colin, tubeless tyres on tubeless rims won't require tubes.If you are slightly concerned about them go to a tyre dealer (i use independents not the big nationals) and ask him for his opinion on them and see what he says about them, and go from there.
