rims OK for tubeless mounting?

Viesti Kirjoittaja Sisu Mischi »

Hey there

I just bought new tyres for my AH45 in 14,5R20 after I realized the mounted 14,00R20 are not very comfortable.
Now I want to use the original rims again.
Are these rims possible to be used tubless? How could they be sealed?
Did anyone already make it and could send some pictures?

I also realized that the outer ring of 2 of my rims are extremly rusty, does anyone know where I could get 2 new outer rings or complete rims in good conditions?

I attached 2 pics of my rims.

Regards

You need inner tyres, and sand blasting to the wheels. :wink:

A-45 wheels have big hole to inner tyre valve. Filling that hole, and sealing two sections air-tide would be a bit hard job.

I would not scrap those rims. Some sandblasting, maybe some TIG welding + grinding to fill the corroded areas and smoothen the surfaces, good painting and then they will be perfect. It is unlike to find similar rims which are like new.
