Now that AM is back ordered on Pneumatic tires as well, where else can these be sourced?

Easy, go contact skyway. They make pneumatic tires of various sizes, 6,8, 12. They don't list everything on their website though.

This is essentially what we ended up doing, except we ordered the tires from MobilityEquipment.com

Surprisingly, the cost ended up being almost identical including shipping to what it would have been from AM without shipping. And..... they should be here a week sooner.

Re: Year of pneumatic tires

Is there a good source for the hubs other than AM? I have seen a lot of rubber tires and tubes or flat-free inserts, but not a lot in the hub department.

Any links to good hubs appreciated (especially if they are cheap and light)

Just got a message that our order (placed Sunday) is shipping, but without the tires. Hubs and inner tubes are apparently coming, though.

Got an email today that they are back in stock. I Placed my order, just in case we go that route. We had enough left over from our shooter in 2014 to prototype with.

Based on the rhino track system it looks like AM knew the game before hand so I wonder why they didn't stock up heavily on pneumatic wheels.

Re: Year of pneumatic tires

So what's the difference between the AM 6" and 8" hubs? Width? Looks like they both take 200x50 tires. Is one better/more robust than the other?
