    Question Tyre Bead Damage

    I recently changed my tyres over and the photos below show damage to the old tyres when they were removed.

    They are Mickey Thompson MTZ's and still have a bit of life in them yet. I was after an opinion on whether I would be wise to reuse them on another set of rims?

    Cheers Dave

    I would advise no, as they will likely leak as the bead squirms on the rim at low pressure.

    however fitting them with a liberal application of tyre slime or tubes will help just remember to check your pressure
