you know whats really a bummer too? i thought i either had to buy a new tire or put a tube in the old dry rotted tire. well, when i started removing the old tire from the rim i saw that there was already a tube in there (previous owner didnt tell me)... so all this sweating and cursing and throwing tire irons across the yard was for nothing really. i am going to see if my friends at the tire shop will put my new tire on the rim in the morn.

Getting ATV tires off rims sucks. Now that I'm not poor I take them to the local tire shop and get them popped off for $5.00 bucks.
Now about these tubes. I never used tubes in my trike tires in the 80's but when I rebuilt my YTM I wanted to use the old rear tires , but the beads were nasty so I bought tubes. On ride # one I tore both stems off, so I bought Ultra $upper Heavy duty tube$ and promptly ripped them up too, so I bought new tires and went tubless. Anyone know what I did wrong? I recall both sets had threaded stems.

well, i took the tire and rim over to the tire shop where a couple of my friends work, it took them about 2 minutes to put the tire on and i paid $5..... i wish i would have done that in the first place instead of cussin and sweatin....but its all good now.
