Subject: RE: Used cement truck tires and wheels for gravity wagons - need source


I used to get them directly from cement plants, fleets of rock trucks. 25.00 to 50.00 each would buy all you wanted. I bought new rims from Unifirth. We used both 385, 425x22.5's. Put 50 or 60 lbs in them and spray them down good with a good brand of leak detector, not dish soap. Check for leaks. If you put more air in them, sometimes the air pressure will blow the dish soap away from the hole without making bubbles. Been there done it. Remember, always check the the air pressure before you put the 1st load on. The side walls are so stiff on some of those tires, they won't sag when the wagon is empty.
