Easy question for who ever, pretty sure I know the answer but ill ask anyway is there any inner tubes out there that are better or tuffer that others I know a flat is a flat if it got pinched or has a stick poking out of it its still flat I just had a three tube weekend and my tube stash is thin and its time to restock so any help is welcomed

My experience with inner tubes says they suck. The biggest reason they go flat is they get pinched in between the wheel and the tire, with out a tube you wouldn't even know it happened. When you get a flat the tire has to come off the wheel the fix the tube, read pain in the ass. If a tubless tire gets a flat all they need, usually, is a plug or two, the tire doesn't have to come off the wheel. Having said that it is a good idea to have a tube handy in case you get a large cut, something to get you out of the woods with.

I run these tubes from tractor supply in my 31 15.50 tires and I've never pinched a tube. I think it's because the tube is a little undersized so it doesn't get into all the little crevices to get pinched. And they are only $28.

The only down side is the valve stem sucks. But with my beadlock wheels and cordless impact gun I can change a tube in 20 minutes
