tires with air?
We're toying with the possibility of using modified tires that are from a handtruck that will have a significant footprint for better traction (tubeless). We're intending on keeping the wheels fairly shielded. Is having an air-filled tire bad news? Does anyone else use non-solid tires?

It's understood that we'll want to keep a few extra on-hand, but i'm not sure exactly how many of these we should expect to go through. I know those tires are designed to take on a significant amount of weight, which shouldn't be a problem with 4.

All ideas appreciated.
