Default Radial trailer tires..

As odd as this sounds, I think I have porous rims on two of the tires
on my Ranger.

Anybody know if you can use tubes with radial tires?


Not sure about radial tires... but I had a problem with a new bias ply tire
left to sit over the winter on my old utility trailer.
Tire lost it's air & wouldn't hold any more..(flat spotting or rust on rim)
I bought a tube for it but I understand the tire can now run hotter. This
didn't matter on my old 'dump' trailer which stayed close to home.
For my baby (Sandpiper 565) only a new tire & rim would do!
Get out and spend some money..... it must be weighing down your pant
pockets.
