Skyway sells a 6" (it may be 6.75". I can never remember) pneumatic wheel. It's different from the one linked above, in that it has hubs which you can mount sprockets to, and it has a knobby tread. I believe you can only get them by asking for the FIRST order form. We've used them on Team 100 since 2002 and they've worked pretty well.

Re: Pneumatic wheel supplier

How can I get that order form. Also how wide are the wheels and how much do they cost?

Call Skyway and ask them to fax the FIRST order form. The number is on their site.

Re: Pneumatic wheel supplier

I've found a few more sites that sell 6" pneumatic tires.

http://www.globalindustrial.com/gcs/...emKey=30011840

http://www2.northerntool.com/product-1/200037724.htm

http://www.castercity.com/casterswnw.htm

These were the first three results of a Google search. Maybe you could find better deals by looking through the results a bit.

Good luck.
