Correct Usage Of Tyres
A tubeless tyre should always be fitted on a tubeless rim
Wheel Hump in Tubeless Tyre
With tubeless rims, the hump of the wheel locks the bead, preventing it from dislocating even when air pressure is low.
No wheel hump in Tube-Type Tyre
Inflated tubes ensure proper bead seating, that is why TT rims generally lack a hump design.
Never mount a tubeless tyre on a tube-type (TT) rim.
The valve slot shape in tubeless and tube-type rim is different as demonstrated in the picture.
