wanted 8 inch trailer tyres
I am building a grasshopper based 7 for my son, who is 3 now. Really looking forward to getting it to rolling chassis stage by the weekend but one of
my tyres has exploded upon fitting it, the beads had rusted and when inflated they snapped. I know I can get new tyres but they are expensive and
wondered if anyone had a pair or one lying around that they wanted to flog. In the true Locost price range.

Like this? http://www.towsure.com/product/7072-350x8_4_Ply_Tyre
I may have one. I'll have a looksy tomorrow.
I bought a complete wheel for my little trailer so I'm sure I have the old one.

I bought 8" tyre for my wheelbarrow with an inner tube for £10. Plenty strong enough to carry a kid with 4 if it will carry 2cwt of concrete
with just one.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

I don't have any tyres. They must have been knackered so they got binned. I found all the rims though!
