H1 bias ply with a tube in it?

[Sarge29]

Just curious if anyone has ever ran the bias tire with the beadlock removed and a tube put in. I want to use this setup for a highway spare but not if it is a death trap. I just need a spare and this one has good tread but the local tire shop boogered up the bead and it wont seal with the beadlock in it. any thoughts

yes you can run a tube. Its ok, just make sure you get a tube that will fit your rim valve stem hole.

In the ol" days a tube would act as a cheap bead lock, well better than none anyways, U can put a tube in anytire, as long as it is the correct size, or darn close. oh and in the ol" days a set of lockers was 2 VW brake handles between the seats, they were narrow enough to fit there in a Jeep, And when one wheel would slip the driver would apply some brake pressure to that wheel, and walla, back in the day before there was a something for everything,

I just was not sure about running the tire on there without the runflat in it. I knew that a tube would work but not sure how well the tire would stay on the wheel. There was something that just didn't look right. I guess I an used to looking at a regular wheel.
