●
The preceding condition:
• the tire is less capable of absorbing shock
• the tire has a shorter useful lifetime

The solution mentioned in the preceding
sentence does not freeze at a temperature of
above -50 °F (-45 °C).
● Fill the tubeless tires at least up to the valve stem
height (at least 75% filled) (A).
