Advantage Over the Conventional Tubed Tyres


Lesser unsprung weight
Better cooling
Slower leakage of air
Simpler assembly
Improved safety
 
Lesser Unsprung Weight:
Being lighter, unsprung weight is reduced, reducing wheel bounce
 
Better cooling:

In case of tubed tyres, heat in the compressed air has to pass through the tube material, 
  i.e. rubber, which is not a good conductor of heat

Since there is no tube in the tubeless tyres, heat can be passed on to the atmosphere 
  directly, resulting in better cooling thereby increasing the tyre life
 
Slower-leakage of Air:

Since the inner liner in the tubeless tyres is not stretched like the tube, it retains the air
  better resulting in its slower leakage
 
Simpler Assembly: 

Only the tyre has to be fitted over the rim
 
 
Improved Safety:

In case of any hole being caused in the tyre, the same can be repaired simply by plugging

A tubeless tyre retains the air pressure for long periods even when punctured by nail, 
  provided the same is held in place
Thus the chances of sudden tyre puncture leading to accident are reduced and any tyre 
  damage shows up only as a slow leak
