Is anybody running tubeless tires on original 57 - 58 F100 rims? (Tim) I Just broke mine down for sandblasting and all the tires had tubes in them even though they looked like conventional radials. I know the rims do not have the little beads for tubeless and with the tubes you can haul a heavier load, but can't the tubes be more prone to cause a blowout from friction between tube and tire on long hauls? not to mention balancing may be easier without them?

I don't know if the F-100 rims are any different, but guys do this all the time with car rims.
