The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Rim Flaps! Another $112 + bucks?? come on.

Are these really necessary for 30X3.5 clincher rims. Why are they so pricey. $28 bucks apiece for a piece of rubber?

Old timers, help me out here. Into tires and tubes $750 bucks, another $100 is killing me. I just can't see $112 worth of material there.

Talk me into them, or talk me out of them, but help me out either way.

I got the new tires and tubes last evening.
