I am using it with tube right know. Aswin from banglore has been using it as a tubeless tyre. The key here is you need to fit it properly. Even a slight bend in alloy will not allow the tyre to be fitted as tubeless.Originally posted by inder.cool View PostIs Sirac tube type or tubeless..!?? Coz the Michelins come with tube type tyres..
IRC tyres are available in Hyderabad, but nothing specific from Karizma. They are more in for 17 inch rims.
I am looking at Vee rubber for the front tyre.

I do not know exactly, but with tube the weight of the tyre increases which directly affects the performance.Originally posted by inder.cool View PostOhh so u r using the sirac with the tube..

No no, i wasn't talking abt the performance effects, rather is it safe to use the tube type tires as tubeless ones..?Originally posted by pranay View Post...also fuel consumption. A heavier tyre will create a greater rolling resistance.

If you can fit Sirac as tubeless, there will not be any problems absolutely. Only some michelins can be used as tubeless and not all. M45 though is a michelin, you cannot use it as a tubeless tyre. The guys at Michelin told Sirac can be used both as tube type as well as tubeless. I have not heard for other tube-type tyres being used as tubeless.Originally posted by inder.cool View PostNo no, i wasn't talking abt the performance effects, rather is it safe to use the tube type tires as tubeless ones..?
If you can fit Sirac as tubeless, it is more good than a tubetype fit. You can repair it yourself in case of puncture. The air will not go as long as the nail remains in the tyre.

I was wondering if we can fit the M45 as tubeless...

Now, i will have to wait for another 20 days for the IRCs to arrive..!

One disadvantage of Tubeless tyre is, in the case of a rim bend, even the slightest, you will have a flat. It is not the case with tubed tyre.Originally posted by inder.cool View Post

The guy at Michelin told even M45 can be fitted as a tubeless. Try once.
