Is it ok to ryn tubes in quads. i done a enduro today and got 2 punctures. They are 6ply kendas too. Just hit sharp rocks. Will it effect it in anyway. Also will i have to run different air pressure. I was running them at 4psi. Is that not enough air pressure. Any help much appreciated.

Mate you can only run tubes if you have Beadlockers. If the tyre creeps (which they do) it will tear the valve stem real fast. Just plug them but use the good plugs where you have to pull the tyre off and fix from the inside.

Mate run around 6psi in the rocky stuff but watch to see if your wearing the center before the outside if you are your running them to high, they should be wearing even across the tread. I run 7psi on my 700xx using Maxxis Razar and they wear fine. Mate even 1 psi makes a difference.
