I've always drilled the wheels so there is no risk of tearing a tire. I don't go I to water so that's a non point to me.

My setups that don't see water the rims get a single 1/16" hole. Tires that see water are sealed and/or have closed cell foams that are waterproof.

Mine sees no water as well so I'm guessing the wheel is better I dont want to tear the tire So maybe one 1/16hole on the wheel would be ok |

Four holes, 1/8 inch each in both the wheel and tire. Tires won't tear. Leather punch for the tires. Drill for the wheels. Searchable topic, beat to death. |

Vent the wheels with 1/8 hole and if you find yourself near water just use a small piece of tape and cover your hole |
