We have used the small rubber bumpers from Small Parts. They are normally used for the feet of computers etc. Use the one with a washer. Cost is fairly low. (can't remember the p/n)

We rivet them to our wheels. Replace them as the wear.

Incredible Traction with the carpet.


: We are looking for ideas to modify the wheelchair wheels or create new wheels. We want the most grip possible. Any suggestions?

: Thanks,

: Eric.
