Can you use tube in tubeless tire?

Can you use an innertube in a tubeless tire if they are the same size? 25/12/9 to be exact!

I don't think you'll have a problem. I only have tubes in my 110 so it's not a big deal. I'm not sure how they would act on something with more power and wheel spin, like an R.

I HATE tubes. But, they are necessary in some cases and can work fine.

Like John said though, wheeel spin and tubes can be a bad combo. I can't imagine the stem staying in place for long on a 250R with an aggressive tire pattern.......

I bet a tube in a 70 or 110 would last a long time!

It use to always cost me 20$ for a tube and 15 or 25 to put one in. 3 months later when the tube died I wondered why I didn't just get a new tire, :D

i have never had problems with tubes, never and balance problems on faster machines. i normally go 1 size smaller on the tube that way it stretches and don't fold up and pinch and slowly rub a hole in itself.

i once ended having two of my tires slashed open by some rocks on my quad threw in tubes and never looked back

Be sure and use extra powder to keep the tube from chaffing inside the tire. Baby powder works great.

good point on the price for tube and install maybe just go new anyway
