i just bought a panaracer fire xc pro tire, 26x2.10 52mm wide.i dont think the width matters because the 26x2.10 size is 52mm whether its steel or aramid bead.now my question is,does it matter if i bought the tire with a steel or aramid bead?the only difference i see is weight.will installation be easier/harder?i dont think i bought the tubeless one because it doesnt say on the package.

Like you said the kevlar bead are a bit lighter & have the added bonus of you being able to fold them up so they take up less space, apart from that theres no real difference.
