That is the hub width, the hub diameter is 8.75" and the overall diameter is 10"
That looks good. Here are direct links for the
tube and
tire. It is strange that I can't find any information on that site about the hubs, other than some images of them.
I think that is your best bet if you need to carry a significant load. Unfortunately, most seem to be 8".
The issue you might see with airplane wheels is that they are designed for takeoff, landing, and some taxiing. Continuous ground use might cause excessive wear. Also, they don't seem like they would be very good at transmitting torque, but I could be wrong about that.
