Re: Where can we find good pneumatic wheels?
Can anyone supply some information for me about the mcmaster wheels mentioned by 330. Part number: 2717T51 We are looking at these as a high CoF option for our drivetrain this year.

What I am looking for:
Mostly design of the stock hub/rim. Searching the web eludes to that all pneumatic casters are very similar, if not the same hub design. I was unable to find a model, or drawing.
I'm curious on what the size of the 4 bolt circle is.
Also, I am looking for the size and length of the shaft part of the wheel. (I do not mean interior dimension, but outside dimension so that you could machine a hub and and insert it over.)

Thanks in advance.
