Do I need special rims for bead tires?

No these will fit any standard mountain bike rim 26"...These tires made a world of difference in the handling of the bike I put them on.

This is a standard tire that mounts onto standard bike rims that come with most bikes.

Assuming you mean the 12 being tire width and 12 being rim diameter, they should mount. The tire width would an inch and half wider. So make sure you have enough clearance for the extra tire width. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Yes, I always recommend a rim strip with any common type of rim where the tube will be exposed to holes, spoke ends, or spoke nipples exposed on contacting surface of the rim.

29er wheels and 700 wheels are the same diameter. The difference is the tires height. Most likely if you go with anything thinner than 700x28 you will have issues stretching the wheels width to fit the rim. This can throw off the bead things wont sit right and it won't be any fun. To be safe, I'd start with 700x32 and see how you like them and if it seems like your wheelset can handle anything thinner then try a thinner tire for the next set.

I changed mine out for some 80mm wheels. You'll barely feel any crack or rocks in the road with those. It's various places online you can buy them.. You can buy them here

Price is for tire only, and I had them mounted on my existing rims for a Sears 22 HP Garden tractor. My tractor has 4 lugs on rear wheels.

You will have to take them in somewhere that has the equipment/tools to 'POP' them on, preferably someplace that is experienced with tractor type tires. Those beads are difficult to get on. That said, I have been real happy with the tires, once mounted (I spent hours trying to mount mine; went to a tire shop (rural), and he used some tool that was gas charged to force the bead over the rim; bout 5 minutes.) He charged me $5.00 (I already had the tire on the rim). Good luck!

Yes that is what I bought them for. I would look for a wider rim if you plan to use tires over 32x11.50

Yes, your tires will fit these wheels. Wheels are in stock and ready to go if you want them. Thanks!

No. Some brands require them, but these do not. They are tightened at the connectors, one on the inside and one on the outside. The inside and outside connectors should be on the same link. The first time you use them drive a little, then get out and tighten them to make sure they are snug on the tire. Note what link you connected them on, then next time, hook to that link on the inside, then pull them snug on the outside and hook to the same number. It is easier than it sounds.

As others have said, you could drill them out. The real question is should you drill them out. Personally, I wouldn't recommend it, as you risk compromising the structural integrity of the rim. Instead, get some presta tubes and adapters (both of which are cheap and don't increase the risk of catastrophic rim failure).

Tire irons if you haven't already tried using some of those. Some rims can be more difficult than others and make the task go from just requiring pressure and manipulation from your hands and thumbs to requiring tire irons to leverage the tire over the rim

Yes this tire has a bead on it, it is ready to mount. I have two piece wheels so I used an inner tube.

I have 35s on mine with stock rims but you might have to put wheel spacers in on the front so they don't rub

I had it installed at the shop. The tires were not removed. Not sure if any special drill is required,

Nothing special is needed, just an allen wrench. The new wheels worked well. Good luck!

You do not buy the rim here. You only buy a puncture resistant tire that fits 700c rims...If you call the tire as rubber, yes you only by the rubber...
