I recently picked up 5 36inch TSL's with the intent to groove and tube them. As the title says I'm looking for info on tubing the tires due to dry rot. The tires hold air and have moderate dry rot. They will be ran on a YJ and see some pavement and lots of trail riding. Any info would be great.

Read the link, nothing about running them some on the highway. Anyone have any highway expieriences/ opinions?

I have run 34x10.5 LTBs on the highway before. It is definitely not the safest thing to do but mine held up great...until I didn't re-air high enough after wheeling. One blew out on the highway. I think the tube just got too hot from being to low on air so if you do run them on the highway definitely don't be lower than normal in the air pressure. But other than that bone head move they would probably still be going on the highway now if I still had them.
