Just wondering if anyone runs/has ran Panaracer Fire XC Pros (folding bead non UST) as tubeless and how they went?

Hi Geoff
These were THE allrounder tyre of choice about 5 - 8 years ago & still work ok but to be honest they've been eclipsed by modern rubber.
The UST version was heavy but reliable & the non UST hadn't got very thick sidewalls so would split on rocks easily.

I would think that the nearest modern offering would be the Nobby Nic Snakeskin tubeless ready. $50 at TBE at the moment...
