Heidenau K60 Scout Rear Tire A true 50/50 dual sport tire, the K60 Scout brings a proven balance of performance on- and off-road. With an improved tread and compound, the Heidenau K60 Scout dual sport tires deliver better cornering stability and wet weather grip on the pavement, while delivering off-road as well. The chevron style tread pattern is similar to full knobby designs which provides lots of open space between the tread blocks to route sand, mud and water from the contact patch while constantly keeping some rubber in contact with the road as the tire rotates. This tire is a stand-out as it does not sacrifice on-road longevity and adhesion to the pavement for off-road traction. A difficult feat for any tire to accomplish. TL Tubeless TT Tube Type Tire Please Note Tire size 150/70 -17 has a solid, center band rather than the staggered tread pattern pictured (see below). Tire size 150/70-18 has a less pronounced center tread stagger (see below). Please Note The K60 Scout tread pattern will vary depending on tire size.

Tubeless tires with tube-type rim

I'm considering the Heidenau K60 Scouts for my Triumph Tiger 800XC. The issue is that in the appropriate size (150/70-15 rear and 90/90-21 front) the K60's are tubeless ["TL" designation in the part number], whereas my rims require innertubes.

My question: Is it OK to run tubeless tires with tubes?
I own BMW F800GS and I have to use innertubes because my rims are with lace, I ride Heidenau with innerstubes anyways the tire is tubeless thats just a comment to let you know that you can use the tire 2 ways without a problem.

does the 150/70/18 also have the solid center?

I know the 150/70/17 has the solid center strip, but what about the 18" version?
Its the same thing, the only diferecen is the diameter of the wheel that increases 1" nothing.
