More traction = less wheelspin = more tread life
Than factor in that the tire is running cooler which can't hurt tread life.
Cooler tires have more consistent pressure. I keep forgetting to check the temp of the tire before and after a moto. I gotta get my ducks in a row.
Installing a tire on a tubliss is a breeze. There is an acclimation period, you have to forget most of what you know about tire removal in installs.
The worst part of the whole deal is having to keep the inner tube up to 100 ~ 110 before a ride. It will bleed out thru the little tube over a week or 2 down to maybe 70. I just carry a bike pump.
I shredded a rear tire last ride. Didn't come off rim or even unseat the bead, didn't mess up the rim in the least, I was riding in rocky conditons.
