They still make inner tube? Why do you need that.

a buddy of mine went to Les shwab and got a tube for his 40's no problem. have you tried calling around. i also heard that farm equipment service/parts places might have them.

why the hell would you want to inner tube a tire like that for?

Rather than question why you`d want an inner tube,I`m suggesting you talk to a tire store.If they don`t know,they shouldn`t be selling tires.

I`ve been in a situation where I needed a tube for my tubeless tire that had damage,was repaired,but needed a tube to assure it stayed inflated.A new tire was 10x as expensive as a tube and the set was worn enough that I didn`t want 1 new tire and 3 with 75% tread.Makes sense to me.

I agree. Tires are expensive. Especially off road tires.
I have installed a tube several times because of damage/patch to a tire.
Also remember to rub baby powder all over the tube before installing. It lubricates the tube against the tire.

well reason for a tube on this is the 35x12.50x16.5 is a hard as heck tire to find just cause the 16.5 rim size.

and there VERY EXPENSIVE.
and all 4 tires have 90% tread...so i dont wanna let this tire go
