I recently purchased the American Classic radial tires and set pressures to 35, the max for this tire. Why do people add more pressure than the manufacturer states I don't understand. I have a British performance car that requires a tube because the rims are not the safety type with the additional lip. I have been running these without tubes for years with no problem, but. The but is in the event of a flat the tire is more prone to separate from the rim. On the As tiny tires I would not take the chance of going tubeless.
