Will M/T E.T Streets fit a 7 1/2" rim?

I never used tubed in my ET streets.

They will mount up but bulge out a little on the sides. 8-9 inch rims are better but 7 1/2's will work. Lots of people run 10.5's on turbines.

I E-mailed the tech. dept. at M/T and they said they recommend using tubes with 7 1/2" being the narrowest rim.
So can tubes be used on regular rims? I've never used them.

I run the 26X12.5's on a 7.5 rim with no tubes perfectly. No problems, you won't need tubes.

Who do you have to pay around here to get rep power!
