This morning walked into the garage to be greeted by a slow leak in the left front tire on the '39 CS

. I'm running Coker Classic 600X16 radials and I've had trouble with the radial tubes in the past

. The '39 CS is the only car I'm using tubes with the radial tires because of the wide five wheels. In the last five years I've gone through four tubes (I guess that's not too bad) but, short of switching to '40 -'48 style smoothies

, I'd like to know if any of you are running radials (600X16) on wide five rims without tubes...
