tatsblisters 11,394 Posted January 7 Report Share Posted January 7 Never used tubes though been thinking of giving them a go tbh . Their is a lad on Facebook that makes bands and made up tubes who is highly recommended and is a good lad who doesn't give two feks about some of the flak he gets from antis. Dead shot steel is his name he would probably give you good advice on what you want mate. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
