Maxxis hookworm tubeless

[DjMikey]

Hey all, as the title says, has anyone set up hookworms tubeless, I know they have wire beads, does that make it easier/harder to seat.

I remember seeing posts where people have been running them tubeless, so should be fine. Chuck enough sealant and tape at a tyre/rim and you can get almost anything to seal.

I remember from running them years ago on the DJ that they're very much on the heavy & bulky side, might be something to think about if you're planning on using them for commuting.

Why do you want to run them tubeless?

Assuming they are on a DJ/street bike you wouldn't be running low pressures or expecting many punctures.

Riding with my kids we have a lot of thorns where we live. So sick of repairing/replacing tubes

maybe the mr tuffy liners would help. easier than trying to run tubeless with wire bead tyres not designed for it.

I've got a set of the Hookworm set up tubeless and they've been holding air no worries.
