Re: AM Pneumatic Wheel Diameter?

That, and I'd need to know the actual OD of those Colson wheels to know how they'd impact our height issues.

Sadly, I have none of these things. Nor have you provided me any useful information. So I fail to grasp the utility of your suggestion.
Do you know how to search for information on the internet? Maybe a quick look at colsons website would reveal wheels in sizes from 1.625" to 8" diameter and widths from 7/8" to 2".

Searching just a pinch further would reveal a hub that will do exactly what you seem to need without requiring any machining. http://wcproducts.net/wcp-00052/

Even a pinch more searching....granted not much more would reveal that the weight difference between pneumatic wheels and colsons would be very close to negligible as well.
