They don't seem compatible. We have these wheels and will be making hubs for them. I wasn't the one to check compatibility but someone on our team said they wouldn't work.

Here is our solution all mounted up on an 8" non-marring Harbor Freight Tire. Had to do a bit of polishing in the lathe to get everything to sit perfect, but I can adjust some before running the last batch tonight.

We have printed a hub with the 4 main holes of the wheel's plate, so we can hold it concentric, the hub have space for 2 flanged bearings and the holes for the sproket.
I don't know if i have explained it clearly, if you need more details PM me.

We've just ordered mountainboard tires from MBS.com once again. We already had their Rockstar Pro Hubs from 2011 and the great folks on the phone there said if we got our order in early enough today, they'd ship today. Note: there are local distributors but none are near us so I didn't bother with that option.

We loved the colors available on their T3 tires but opted to go with the Vine tires because of the increased traction.

Hope this helps other teams out there searching for a hub and wheel option.

We just ordered a single T3 wheel to try them out. How well do they fit on the AndyMark hubs?

Thank You. Have some on the way to possibly try out.

Curious about this as well.

Just purchased 6 of the T3 in green and tubes. Was on the phone with Tim discussing the available options and all. Great service and provided a small discount.

We have two Vine's in house (and 16 more coming in tomorrow) they work great on the AndyMark Hubs and we have filled them up to around 70psi. I've heard MBS might be out of stock soon on the Vine's. If you look around you can find a wide variety of 200x50 tires, Razor makes a few scooters that use that size tire as well.

The same tire as sold by Andymark (except in black) is used on some smaller scooters and lawn equipment. If it is a Cheng Shin brand 200x50 and has the C-968 tread pattern it will be the same rounded profile, diamond treaded knobby many are still looking for. Our set came from a lawn equipment repair shop.

The black ones are NOT non-marking, meaning your robot will leave skid marks on the floor.
