What tubes to I need with Hoosier QTP 28x11.5x15 on a 15x8 Telstar. I know they'll bulge a little bit.

Tubes are for bicycles. I would try to avoid them on a car. They add a lot of unnessary weight. They cause a lot of balance problems.

I'm guessing the following will help. You can call them for confirmation prior to ordering...

BTW: I run tubes. The manufacturer recommends tubes. I use rim screws and I don't want my tires to leak. Tubes do make balancing a bit more difficult but it is the right way to do it. Use plenty of talc when you intstall the tubes. Don't let a discount auto place do it, take them to a truck shop becasue those guys generally know something. Tubes will make your tires last longer too.

Hmmm. Now I'm debating. I'm probably not going to run less that 14 psi in the tires. And I'm not going to go with rim screws. Hmmmm.
