I would try to find foam filled, or never-flat tires to replace them. These are pneumatic style tires, but filled with some heavy duty foam that are no maintenance, act and feel like an air filled tire, but never go flat.

I got a set of these as an upgrade on a commercial hand truck (dolly) I was ordering, and I couldn't be happier. It can handle 1000 pounds on two wheels, and they have held up for years.

A google search quickly found these at Home Depot, only $60 for a set of four:

I can't vouch for these, but they have very good reviews. I would try to find something like these if these don't fit.

Unfortunately I do not see a wheel that would work on their website. The closet store is 110 miles or so away.


Well that is too bad,but you are blessed to not have to live where I do, close to the city of Atlanta, Ga.
We have shops for about every thing you could want BUT we also have the blight that trickles
from that town and causes me to have firearms handy all the time.that started around 2000.
My shopping locally is early in the A M when some fine citizens are sleeping.
Last couple of years it has been Amazon prime and that has its draw backs as I have to watch for deliveries and caught one my deliveries running down the street.[rifle scope and an 8 year old]

Update-I ordered a pair of 4.10/350-6 tubes earlier today.

Of course I also broke a head bolt taking the shroud off so I could replace the primer line. A little heat, PB B'laster and a pair of vise grips and I got the stub out. SO now to order another head bolt and a muffler gasket. Always something.

After much frustration, I managed to break the bead on my leaky wheel/tire and got the tube installed, aired up and the wheel reinstalled.

Also installed my new head bolt and muffler gasket.

Should be good to sit in the garage until next winter now. Hopefully I won't need to use it at this point in the season.

Tubes are the only sure bet. I have an Agri-fab mower cart that had the same issue.
